History's Greatest Lies

The book by William Weir will force you to see history through a new lens. It debunks many history stories told in schoolbooks by giving authentic reasons. After going through the book, I felt like my entire school education was waste of money as almost everything I was told was wrong according to this book. Many stories like "Emperor Nero was not fiddling as Rome was attacked and burnt because the fiddle wasn't invented till that time. So his enemies perhaps created this story. " can be found in the book. The book is loaded with surprises for every history buff. You can use the facts and cite the sources given in the book to show off your history skills in front of your friends.
