Publisher's Summary

Did you know a novel foretold a maritime disaster 14 years before it happened? Or that a typing error actually shortened a war? Or that you’ve probably never heard of the Greatest America Fire Disaster or why it’s been lost to obscure history?

These are only three of the fascinating tales of history you’ll find within this audiobook. Tales as you’ve never heard them before. In the dusty corners of history, you’ll find obscure stories about the men and women, just like you and me, whose names have been engraved in the annuals of time.

Take my hand, and I’ll guide you on a fascinating journey through obscure history’s tales of inventions, sports, war, courage, crime, disasters, and more. Let’s have some fun!
