George Mason University asks "What is the least credible history book in print?" by way of Christopher Moore's history site (link in box).
I have not read any - and don't intend to - although I did read large snippets of Zinn. I could never really get over it for some reason.
However, the one about the Chinese discovering America, if I were to guess a choice, strikes me as ridiculous. There simply isn't any proof of this happening. It's pure speculation.
History is filled with speculative readings and writings I'm afraid.
Do any of you have a book you'd add to the list?
