Awesome reviews. I don’t want to avoid huge ships, but if I did, this would be book for me.
Clearly a satire. 0.0 Is that really the price?!

“2008 marks the 30th anniversary of the Diagram Prize, the momentous annual contest to determine the oddest book title of the year. Established in 1978 by book packagers the Diagram Group, the prize is a joyous celebration of the barmy side of publishing. Baffling titles such as Bombproof Your Horse, How to Avoid Huge Ships and People Who Don’t Know They’re Dead have all been recipients of this glittering prize. Who could forget classic winners such as Greek Rural Postmen and Their Cancellation Numbers or The Big Book of Lesbian Horse Stories? Who could fail to be inspired by titles such as Highlights in the History of Concrete and Weeds in a Changing World?”
I wind to get a bunch of those lifesized concrete hippos and place them around in the lake in front of my house.
They probably won’t keep ships away but they should be fine for scaring off savage natives.
If huge ships play the Knockout Game they could probably do a real number on you.
What do you have against ships?
Not certain what he suggests in his book, but I took care of my Huge ship problem by moving to Kansas.
Tried once at Easter Island. Didn’t work.
This asshole should be locked in a rubber room!
There is a companion book with a similar title. The P in the is a T in the companion book. The entire book reads, “Do not associate with Liberals.”
