A humorous take on hundreds of historical legends and debacles, including the ride of Samuel Prescott into Concord, not Paul Revere. Includes the only time Isaac Newton spoke in Parliament, and it was to ask that a window be opened. Students of history, and those who could care less about history, will find the "facts" they have been taught are not always factual, but more fanciful.
