Description
Please Note This Item is Currently Sold Out HISTORY AS IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE TOLD: TRUE AND THRILLING. Thomas Edison was a bad guy— and bad guys usually lose in the end. World War II radio host “Tokyo Rose” was branded as a traitor by the U.S. government and served time in prison. In reality, she was a hero to many. Twenty U.S. soldiers received medals of honor at the Battle of Wounded Knee—yet this wasn’t a battle at all; it was a massacre. Paul Revere’s midnight ride was nothing compared to the ride made by a guy named Jack whom you’ve probably never heard of.
