I'm currently reading 'The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich' written by William Shirer. It's an extremely detailed book and so far it's a good read, but I can't fully enjoy it because I assume that much of it is likely a Jan 6 style rewrite of what actually happened.
Check out Ron Unz's American Pravda series. He has a number of articles on WW2, but his article on the Leo Frank case really drives home how much history can be distorted by motivated actors.
I definitely will, thanks for the recommendation.
