The Guinness Book of Records is very familHiaorwtodidaltlhoef us, but do you know where the book come from? I'm afraid not bmooaknycopmeeoipntloe know it. As a matter of fact, Guinness came from Guinness Bbereinwg?ery----- a name of Ireland Brewery. In 1951, Sir Hugh Beaver, the then manager director of the Guinness Brewery , went on a shooting party and became involved in an argument. Which was the fastest game bird in Europe ? The golden plover or the grouse ? He realized then that a book supplying the answers to this sort of question might prove popular. He was right ! Sir Hugh Beaver’s idea became reality when Norris and Ross McWhirter, who had been running a fact-finding agency in London , were commissioned to compile what became The Guinness Book of Records .

The book has gone on to become a record breaker in its own right. With sales of more than 94 million copies in 100 different countries and 37 languages, Guinness World Records is the world’s best ever
