Revealing the truth behind mass political and press fallacies, such as Britain’s Boer War concentration camps and the infamous Dreyfus Affair in France. A Short History of the World in 50 Lies uncovers the conspiracies that created centuries of conflict and domination and still impact our lives today. See the profound effects of this secretive side of history and find out how the truth really is stranger—and far more dangerous—than any fiction.
