Publisher's summary

Best-selling author and founder of George Mason University's History News Network Rick Shenkman is a historian, a rebel, and a myth debunker par excellence. In Legends, Lies & Cherished Myths of World History, Shenkman shatters some of the most honored and long-held misconceptions about famous people and events - from the glory days of the Roman Empire to the dark days of World War II...from kings and despots to battles and empires, from religions to inventions. Fascinating, edifying, and irreverent, here is the real world history you were never taught in school - for history buffs and confirmed trivia fanatics everywhere!
