Synopsis
As Brexit made very clear, history is constantly exploited, twisted and misrepresented for all sorts of gains. This book sets some myths straight.
Sure to make headlines - full of surprising revelations and assumption-busting history.
For fans of Mary Beard's Confronting the Classics, Lucy Worsley, Peter Frankopan's The Silk Roads, Tim Marshall's Prisoners of Geography and Hans Rosling's Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World - and Why Things Are Better Than You Think.
