It has taken me two and a half years to write this book. But give me a few seconds to persuade you to read it. It is not possible for someone to taste the success of life without proper knowledge of some subjects like sports, entertainment, history, geography, etc. This proper knowledge not only makes a person successful but also makes them mentally strong enough to face the challenges of this competitive world. Keeping these things in mind I bring this treasure of knowledge “Masterstroke Vol. 1” in front of you. In this book, you will get more than 900 questions on various subjects such as Advertisements, Flags, Cricket, Entertainment, History, Cartoons, and many more along with interesting facts and photos. I hope this book definitely helps you in your future life. Thank you.
