| BOLLER JR, PAUL F Not So! Popular Myths About America from Columbus to Clinton Oxford University Press, NY, 1995, 1st Signed Ed 1st Pr. Hardbound. The author provides us with a cornucopia of historical correction, debunking myths that range from the trivial; for instance, George Washington did not have false teeth made of wood (they were made of ivory), to the pernicious (FDR did not know in advance that the Japanese planned to bomb Pearl Harbor).
