101 historical myths, by Åke Persson & Thomas Oldrup



What a fun book! I laughed several times because when you think about it, it reallys if funny, some of the things we learn in school about some historical events and then go on believing them no matter how stupid they might sound. We rarely look up the true facts, instead, we just go on believing what we heard once in school or what everybody else say because hey, then its gotta be true, right? NO!
 And in most cases its not! This book is written by two Swedish historians, journalists and a writers. They wrote this book with a lot of humour and a lot of knowledge. When you read this you realize how unlogical and unrealistic your view of history and the people in it really was. Ha Ha!
