A New York Times bestseller, Mark Booth?s The Secret History of the World is ?an entire library?s worth of scholarship [in] a single volume? (San Francisco Gate).?Authentically mindboggling.? Kirkus ReviewsThey say that history is written by the victors. But what if historyor what we have come to know as historyhas been written by the wrong people? What if everything we?ve been told is only part of the story?In this groundbreaking and nowfamous work, Mark Booth embarks on an enthralling tour of our world?s secret histories. Starting from a dangerous premisethat everything we?ve known about our world?s past is corrupted, and that the stories put forward by the various cults and mystery schools throughout history are trueBooth produces nothing short of an alternate history of the past 3,000 years.Topics include:* Greek and Egyptian mythology* Jewish folklore* Christianity* Freemasons* Charlemagne* Don Quixote* George Washington* Adolph Hitler* And more!Booth writes in his introduction, ?Although this book can be read just as a record of the absurd things people have believed, an epic phantasmagoria, a cacophony of irrational experiences, I hope that by the end some readers will hear some harmonies and perhaps also sense a slight philosophical undertow, which is the suggestion that it may be true.?Here is a book that shows that history needs a revolutionary rethink, and Mark Booth has 3,000 years of hidden wisdom to back it up. If you?ve ever wondered if the history you learned in school was wrong, or wondered if conspiracy theorists could be right, then the history in this book offers a perspective you?ll want to explore.
