Summary
The Truth About History: How New Evidence Changes the Story of the Past
A collection of historical revisions based on the latest scientific discoveries. In this work, the editors of Reader's Digest debunk numerous myths and misconceptions that have been passed down as facts for years.
The book is richly illustrated with more than 150 images, including 125 photographs, maps, tables and charts, which allows readers to see history from a new angle. Some of the discoveries include:
- Cleopatra was not a beauty as it is considered today, but short, fat and not very beautiful.
- Lucrezia Borgia probably did not kill anyone, but her reputation was poisoned by the enemies of her powerful father, the Pope.
- The Hindenburg disaster was not caused by a hydrogen leak, but by the outer coating of the airship containing flammable substances.
- Napoleon did not die of stomach cancer, as is usually considered, there are already theories that suggest the possibility of poisoning. Sniffer
This book offers readers the opportunity to separate fact from fiction and gain a deeper understanding of history through the prism of the latest research.
