Publisher's Summary
A treasure trove filled with fascinating anecdotes about the tiny ripples that have caused big waves in history, Hitler's Secret Jewish Psychic will cure you of two misconceptions: the first being that history is relentlessly boring and the second that significant historical events are caused by significant and great causes.
Here you'll unearth a multitude of facts you never knew were true. You'll learn some unbelievable things about some of the most prominent figures in history. (Picasso was stillborn until his uncle revived him by blowing cigar smoke in his face!) You'll discover facts about some of the most famous wars in history. (Japan actually manufactured balloons carrying deadly diseases, which they attempted to send over the Pacific Ocean to the United States.)
Other strange facts include:
