A fascinating, fun, and fact-filled compendium of the greatest lies, deceptions, propaganda, and frauds ever perpetrated Throughout history—from the dawn of man to the War on Terror—governments, corporations, historians, and high-level braggarts of every stripe have freely engaged in the time-honored pastime of lying for fun and profit.

The self-made, self-serving myths we still believe today of Davy Crockett, Lawrence of Arabia, and Napoleon Plus our own personal pick for History's #1 Biggest Liar . . . and much more! The lies will out! You Said What? is an indispensable treasure trove of true falsehoods, and an irreverent introduction to the world's greatest lies and the liars who told them.
Autor podjął się zadania opracowania zbioru 39 analitycznych artykuł�w. Bardzo przejrzysty układ książki z zachowaniem chronologii wydarzeń pozwala prześledzić okres od 1936 do 1945. Wiele przegranych bitew i kampanii miało znaczenie dla przebiegu wojny, ale te, omawiane na kartach niniejszej książki miały bezpośredni wpływ na ostateczne rozstrzygnięcie. Wiele złych decyzji po obu stronach, zar�wno Aliant�w (Amerykan�w, Brytyjczyk�w, Rosjan), jak i państw Osi, decyzji, kt�re spowodowały tysiące ofiar, pozostało bez śladu. Winni nie zawsze tracili stanowiska, a często, dzięki p�źniejszym sukcesom, pozostali w pamięci jako wybitni wodzowie. Inspiracją do wydania tej książki jest wojskowa zasada , kt�ra głosi, że 'Na wojnie zwycięzcą jest ten, kto popełnia najmniej błęd�w'. Przykłady decyzji podejmowanych na r�żnych frontach, od Rosji po Normandię, od p�łnocnej Norwegii po Afrykę, Grecję i Kretę, w trakcie realizacji r�żnych operacji. Nie ma tu skomplikowanych map przebiegu operacji wojskowych, kt�re nie zawsze są zrozumiałe dla przeciętnego Czytelnika. Jest natomiast wartka opowieść, pełna celnych sformułowań i wniosk�w. Polski czytelnik z uzasadnioną dumą znajdzie na kartach tej książki informacje o rodakach walczących pod Narvikiem, Monte Cassino, Falaise czy Arnhem.
