You Said What?: Lies and Propaganda Throughout History

It's true that this book does get some of its facts wrong like in its discussion of the Nazi ascendency to power, it incorrectly recites that the Nazis won election in 1933 prior to their ascent to power in 1933 (factually untrue because the Nazis actually won dominent but not controlling votes in November 1932 and March 1933 Riechstag elections). But that and -- other similar -- errors aside this book remains still to be fun and thought provoking reading for its thesis that the myth is oftentimes more remembered than the actual history. For better treatments of these types of issues I would recommend Myths and Lies of American History and Myths and Lies of World History by Rick Shenkman as well as Loewan's book on Lies My Teacher Told Me.
