FAKE HISTORY: 101 THINGS THAT NEVER HAPPENED (HB)

Hugo Boss didn’t design Nazi uniforms, medieval people didn’t think the world was flat and Napoleon didn’t shoot off the Sphinx’s nose. Fake history is fake news about the past, yet it continues to shape the stories we tell about who we are and how we got here. This fascinating and illuminating book debunks 101 myths so you can disabuse your friends and family, and arm yourself with the tools to spot fake history wherever you encounter it. (Marie Antoinette never said, ‘let them eat cake’, neither.)
