'There were two theories about the Black Death. One was that it was the bionic plague'!!

So says one of Paul Sharpe's history pupils. Or how about this one: 'Elgar taught himself to play the violin, cello and baboon'! This rib-tickling collection of history howlers, from the mildly diverting to the hilarious, is sure to pass an hour or two in giggly, heart-warming amusement.

A valuable insight into the things that history pupils manage to get so, so wrong.
