They have been produced since about 1962 by Field Enterprises of Chicago. they are not fantasy, but do suffer from some historical distortions as exaggerating the role of the American Presidents, Nixon(credited) for the Apollo II landing, for example a cartoon OS a Saturn rocket launch with Nixon in the background )(events of the Nixon administration) This concept seems to be a derivative of Regalian Right which dates to at least Elizabethan Times.

As with most encyclopedias, there was not just one author, but several, and new ones are added as the content is reviewed and updated.

The previous answerer said it as the writer as a "dumbshit" (sorry if my language is too offensive) and that is insulting World Book Inc. The encyclopedia is published by World Book Inc. and it is not written alone, but by >3,000 contributors. Check in the front of volume 1 you can find all the contributors. The previous answerer (i don't know the name) had insulted World Book Inc. 100%. I was extremely disappointed when i was seeing the previous answer. It is very hard to make it, it will need a lot of time to publish it, but the contributors still want to make it. So, their work must be appreciated, not insulted, and they gave us a lot of knowledge in a 22-volume set. So please tell the previous answerer not to insult and make fun on any hardworking people anymore. The contributors are hardworking, so appreciate them.

I hope my information would be helpful for you. This site is to share knowledge, not to insult people. And the contributors are very smart they have "Prof.", "Ph. D.", "Bachelor of... " degrees, so they are not dumb but very smart.

P.S. So it's okay to ask it, i will allow you to ask questions like this, the previous answerer said "no one knows" but i know this, and now you also know this.

So trust my answer, because the previous answerer answered this rudely and used slang language, but i used formal language and politely ( i know there's a bad word above, but actually i don't want to use it, but to tell that the previous answer is insulting and i apologized it ) so please answer questions like this, and this means you share your knowledge formally.
