A fun, authoritative and alternative history of the world that exposes some of the biggest lies ever told and how they've been used over time. Journalist and author Otto English takes apart 10 of the greatest lies from history and shows how our present continues to be twisted and manipulated by the fabrications of the past.
Much of what we assume to be true or are encouraged to believe to be true is simply wrong. Whether propagated by politicians and think tanks, populists or the media, the family tales of childhood or your Facebook friend's feed - fake history is everywhere and it impacts, ever more, on our modern world. This book dismantles the lazy and pernicious tropes of the past as Otto English sets out to redress the balance and reclaim truth from those who seek to pervert it. Fake History will expose everything you weren't told in school and reveal why you weren't taught it.

But fear not, the truth of his life, his rule and what he did with unrestrained power, is plenty weird, salacious and horrifying.
