Fake History - Ten Great Lies and How They Shaped the World (Broché)

Taking ten of the greatest lies from history, journalist and author Otto English gives us an entertaining look at how so much of what we have always believed to be true is simply wrong. From grand narratives dreamt up in cabinet rooms and wars that never really happened, to lies spun by the media and powerful figures rewriting their own lives - fake history is everywhere and powerfully impacts our world today.
Setting out to redress the balance, English pulls apart the lies that litter history as we know it and, in doing so, redaims the truth from those who have perverted it.
