First published ten years ago, award-winning historian Ray Raphael's Founding Myths has since established itself as a landmark of historical myth-busting. With the author's trademark wit and flair, Founding Myths exposes the errors and inventions in America's most cherished tales, from Paul Revere's famous ride to Patrick Henry's """"Liberty or Death"""" speech. For the 70 thousand readers who have been captivated by Raphael's eye-opening accounts, history has never been the same. A welcome resource for anyone seeking to separate historical fact from fiction.
