**An International Bestseller** Fake news about the past is fake history. Did Hugo Boss
design the Nazi uniforms? Did medieval people think the world was flat? Did Napoleon shoot the
nose off the Sphinx? *Spoiler Alert* The answer to all those questions is no. From the
famous quote 'Let them eat cake' - mistakenly attributed to Marie Antoinette - to the
apocryphal horns that adorned Viking helmets fake history continues to shape the story we tell
about who we are and how we got here. With doctored photographs AI-generated images and false
claims about the past circulating in the news and on social media separating fact from fiction
seems harder than ever before. Jo Hedwig Teeuwisse better known as The Fake History Hunter
is on a one-woman mission to hunt down fake history and reclaim the truth for the rest of us.
In this fascinating and illuminating book Teeuwisse debunks 101 myths so you can correct your
friends and family and arm yourself with the tools to spot and debunk fake history wherever
you encounter it.
