Forgotten History: Lost to Time. Interesting Events in History

Edward Steers Jr.

0/5 ( ratings)

The only history we know is what we have been taught, and much of that eventually becomes lost in the dustbin of forgotten history. The Lone Ranger was not written just for entertainment. It's creator, George W. Trendle sought to use the classic hero to teach children patriotic and moral values. Gas rationing during World War 2 had little to do with conserving precious fuel. Believed to be protected from Japanese attack by the Pacific Ocean, the country was repeatedly bombed by Japanese efforts to carry the war to America. And so it goes, from presidential succession to the questionable constitutionality of creating the State of West Virginia, to saving the world's greatest art treasures from the destruction of war. Intriguing stories that slipped through the cracks of history. Forgotten History brings a few of these interesting moments back to life, if only for a brief time, it is a worthy effort.
