Handouts
This I know: people love free stuff. Mangesh and I have been dangling free t-shirts in front of mental_floss readers, and the response has been overwhelming (432 and 272 comments for Thursday’s giveaways). The latest item you can win is a copy of Second Acts: Presidential Lives and Legacies After The White House. After reading about the book in the Times a while back, I begged the author’s publicist for a few free copies. (I, too, love free stuff.)
To test your knowledge of ex-Presidents, we drew up this quiz.
And if you happen to be a history teacher, test your students. We need to convince other producers of stuff that sending said stuff to us, for free, is a sensible method of promotion.
