Fake History
Far from concerning the obscure and insignificant parts of our history, these fundamental inaccuracies and downright lies color the depiction of many of those pivotal characters and events we learnt about at school. Cleopatra, Marco Polo, Captain Cook, Joan of Arc; most of us could reel off a fact or two about each. But as this intriguing book reveals, a closer examination of these core parts of our social and political history shows that often all was not as it seemed, and that the agendas of those responsible for recording these events had a huge impact on what was reported and what was covered up. Fake History, perfect for inquisitive adults, is an entertaining romp through the centuries, uncovering the fundamental inaccuracies and misleading parts of our past.
A fascinating and entertaining examination of our documented history, revealing the fundamental inaccuracies and downright lies that form the basis of a lot of what we think we know about the past. - Including the truth behind the Black Legend of the Spanish Inquisition, who was really responsible for the Great Fire of Chicago, was there really muting on the Bounty, and did Marco Polo ever set foot in China? - Illustrated with line drawings throughout Comparative titles: – An Utterly Impartial History of Britain, John O'Farrell (Black Swan, 2008) – Glory and Bollocks: The Truth Behind Ten Defining Events in British History, Colin Brown (Oneworld, 2013)
