Bullsh*t History

Nick Hall

Stories you’ve never heard of…because they’re completely made up.

Ever heard about the only African Pope in history, the horse that swam the English Channel, or the town that hung a baguette?

No?

That’s because I just made them up.

FAKE is everywhere. Our newspapers spout it, our politicians exclaim it, and our celebrities thrive on it. It seems like nowadays you can make up any old tosh and people will just swallow it without one iota of common sense. So why should history miss out on all the fun?

Here are tons of characters from history for you to amaze your friends and family with - safe in the knowledge that they’re all complete and utter bullshit.
