Story5 out of 5 stars 1
Érase una vez un cura que tocó una campana la madrugada de un domingo y levantó en armas a todo un pueblo cansado de trecientos años de opresión. Vendrían una guerra que duraría más de una década, una monarquía, golpes de Estado, la república, un caudillo apostador, la pérdida de la mitad del territorio, un zapoteco que llegó a ser presidente, la exclusión de la Iglesia y la consecuente batalla entre liberales y conservadores, otra intervención y otro imperio, un dictador afrancesado y el inicio de un nuevo conflicto armado. Así fue el convulso siglo XIX mexicano.

Nos gustan las mentiras. Tenemos la facultad de mentir, la capacidad de construir mentiras y la maravillosa inclinación de creer en ellas. Ese es el inicio y la premisa de Falsificar la historia. Un recorrido de miles de años por la historia, la filosofía y la religión; una aventura a través de la psicología individual y la de las masas, un viaje que no deja de moverse entre la realidad y los mitos, y que nos lleva a cuestionarnos TODO LO QUE HEMOS CREÍDO.

México bizarro 2 es un viaje alucinante por distintas épocas y personajes de nuestro país. Julio Patán y Alejandro Rosas te cuentan qué hay detrás de la fortuna de un pepenador millonario, un portero secuestrador y un poeta caníbal. O aquella vez que vino Queen y odiaron tanto la burocracia mexa que juraron nunca volver. Pero eso sí, fuimos fans de Tohuí hasta el punto de cantar con enjundia «Osito panda, que aún no andas...». Ya entrados en gastos, ¿un taquito de manatí o un pozolito humano? Ambos: platillos del menú bizarro de nuestra historia.

El traidor es uno de los trabajos periodísticos más ambiciosos en la trayectoria de Anabel Hernández. Su historia se remonta a enero de 2011, cuando la contactó uno de los abogados de Vicente Zambada Niebla, mejor conocido como Vicentillo, quien enfrentaba un juicio en una corte de Chicago. La intención era compartir con la periodista documentos y hechos que ampliaban y esclarecían varios de los episodios que acababa de dar a conocer en Los señores del narco.

Publisher's summary
Más allá de vencedores y vencidos, con una mirada que permite al lector acercarse de una manera distinta al pasado reciente, Alejandro Rosas y Sandra Molina concluyen su apasionante y perturbadora revisión de la Historia de México. Su trabajo inicia con el recuento de una fallida democracia -la de Madero- y finaliza con una crónica no menos triste, el retorno del Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) a los Pinos.
De la administración de la abundancia petrolera a las crisis sexenales; del terremoto de 1985 a los escándalos de la fuga del Chapo y su recaptura; los autores nos adentran en la vida de un país que soñaba con un futuro prometedor donde la alternancia política fuera una realidad y la estabilidad social una constante; donde sus ciudadanos dejaran atrás los amargos recuerdos de la Revolución para instalarse en la comodidad del milagro mexicano.

In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

How did the Wendels, one of New York’s most famous Gilded Age families, disappear from history? The Wendels built a fortune from New York real estate, and rubbed shoulders with the Astors, Vanderbilts, and Stuyvesants. But as the 19th century came to an end, the Wendel family tore itself apart. Following six years of painstaking archival research, Claire Prentice has prised open the door of the Wendels’ Fifth Avenue mansion—dubbed “the house of mystery” by the press—to reveal a fascinating and dysfunctional family imprisoned in a gilded cage.

On each and every page of his masterpiece, Family of Secrets, he explodes the myths and lies that powerful forces have perpetrated on the American consciousness. He digs beneath the surface in a form of journalistic archeology to reveal the hidden history of one of America's most powerful families, leaving no stone unturned.

Millions of words have poured forth about man's trip to the moon, but until now few people have had a sense of the most engrossing side of the adventure: namely, what went on in the minds of the astronauts themselves - in space, on the moon, and even during certain odysseys on earth. It is this, the inner life of the astronauts, that Tom Wolfe describes with his almost uncanny empathetic powers that made The Right Stuff a classic.

Stories of "The American West" often rely on tired tropes of tough cowboys, but real history is much less straight and narrow and way more interesting. Join host Niecy Nash-Betts for a wild round-up of LGBTQ+ lives that got buried in the dust of popular culture and history, and a look at how queer people continue to shape the West today–from gay rodeo to two-spirit identity to trans truckers.

The history of the Boston Tea Party is a hidden one. Why? Since it was a clandestine operation, all sorts of rumors and legends grew up around the event—many collected decades after the American Revolution had ended. At its core, however, the night of December 16, 1773, when colonials dumped tea from British ships into Boston Harbor, was more than a fight over tea and taxes. It was a struggle over the very nature of democracy and self-governance.
