History As Mystery
In a lively challenge to mainstream history, Michael Parenti does battle with a number of mass-marketed historical myths. And he demonstrates how historians are influenced by the professional and class environment in which they work. He shows how history's victors distort and suppress the documentary record in order to perpetuate their power and privilege.
Pursuing themes ranging from antiquity to modern times, from the Inquisition and Joan of Arc to the anti-labor bias of present-day history books, History as Mystery demonstrates how past and present can inform each other and how history can be a truly exciting and engaging subject.Michael Parenti, always provocative and eloquent, gives us a lively as well as valuable critique of orthodoxy posing as 'history.'--Howard Zinn, author of A People's History of the United StatesDeserves to become an instant
