Enigmas de la historia

Noted in historical documents, copied and widely repeated, it doesn't take long for one version of the truth to be accepted as fact. But who makes up these falsehoods and why are they gaining ground so quickly?. Far from referring to the obscure and insignificant parts of our history, these inaccuracies and outright lies color the description of many historical figures and crucial events that we learned about in school. Cleopatra, Marco Polo, Captain Cook, Joan of Arch... most of us could probably tell a fact or two about each of them. But as this intriguing book reveals, a closer look at our social and political history shows that all was often not as it seemed, and that the plans of those responsible for recording these events influenced what was reported and reported. what he was hiding in.
