    Product Description
    If you think that witches were burned at Salem, that St. Patrick was Irish, and that George Washington was our first president…don’t you believe it! Our cherished culturally shared beliefs stem from a variety of sources, many of which propagate old wives’ tales, myths, self-serving fantasies, innocent fallacies, or sheer nonsense. History is replete with stories of great men and events that either never happened or didn’t happen the way we were told they did. Such items are part of our common knowledge. They are taught in schools. They are passed down to us by our families and friends and have become part of shared cultural knowledge, accepted without question. And they are wrong. Here, Herb Reich explodes 200 myths that you probably accept as fact, including:

    • Jackie Robinson was the first black baseball player in the major leagues.
    • The captain of a ship can perform marriages.
    • Mussolini’s trains ran on time.
    • Charles Lindbergh was the first man to fly across the Atlantic Ocean.
    • Baseball was invented by Abner Doubleday in 1839.
    • The Mason-Dixon line was drawn to separate the slave South from the free North.
    • Betsy Ross sewed the first American flag.
    • Cleopatra was Egyptian.
    • Chicago is called “the windy city” because of the gusts off Lake Michigan.

    It is a cliché that history is written by the victors. But Don’t You Believe It! will demonstrate that it is also written by teachers, by newsmen, by heirs, by hucksters, and occasionally by someone who has a lousy memory or an axe to grind. 20 b&w illustrations.
