Legends, Lies: Cherished Myths of World History
hardtack avatar reviewed on + 2706 more book reviews


In this book, the author relates numerous truths which conflict with history as we were taught. However, he also makes many mistakes. You need a good background in history to know which is true and which is just another myth.

In addition, the author writes in a "tongue-in-cheek" manner which comes across as very juvenile and, ultimately, very annoying.

I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.
