When Churchill Slaughtered Sheep and Stalin Robbed a Bank: History's Unknown Chapters

Exactly what it says on the tin: a collection of underappreciated biographical chapters from history, with a bias towards Brits, Nazis, and the people around Stalin. The quality is popular, but without egregious errors. Think a more serious version of a Cracked.com listicle (I actually have a pretty good opinion of Cracked, aside from the house style). Since I listened to this on audiobook, Mr. Milton is an enthusiastic and pleasant narrator, who really brings these stories to life. On the other hand, there’s no theme or research beyond sensationalism.
