The Great Yorkshire Quiz Book (Country Books, £7.99)

What weighs 8,000 tonnes and is 250ft high in Bradford?

What did the JB stand for in JB Priestley?

And in St Peter’s Church, Addingham, whose wood works can you see?

These questions are among 1,000 in The Great Yorkshire Quiz Book, which tests readers’ knowledge of the White Rose county.

Ideal for pub quizzes, family gatherings and individual brain-teasing, the questions – many of which relate to the Bradford district – include history, sport, curiosities, well-known people and places in Yorkshire.

The book, by Dick Richardson, also includes more than 100 ‘fancy that’ boxes with interesting facts about the county.

Joe Rogue, for example, was a miser who died in 1790 near Otley. He died worth £550, a considerable sum in those days.

He boasted that he had never done a day’s work in his life, nor spent a single farthing on food and clothing. He got through life by begging for necessities.

So, if you think you know Yorkshire, pick up a copy – and don’t worry, the answers are in the back.
