Prisoner of Trebekistan: A Decade in Jeopardy!
by Bob Harris
A funny and exciting journey of the life of a Jeopardy contestant. Trebekistan is the place Bob Harris describes when breaking down facts to remember for Jeopardy. His brain is filled with thousands upon thousands of facts that fill his brain with what, at the beginning of the book, is useless. As time passes, these facts begin to take on more meaning to him and he longs to flesh them out.
Bob's travels in Trebekistan with a skilled and a playful voice. The book is, at times, a very personal touching story about dealing with loss and the searching for meaning.
