American History's Biggest Fibs with Lucy Worsley

Lucy Worsley brought her signature investigative flair to American History's Biggest Fibs, a series that redefined how international audiences perceive the United States’ foundation stories. By dissecting curated myths surrounding the American Revolution, the Civil War, and the Cold War, Worsley highlighted how history is often a tool for nation-building rather than a strict record of events. Its legacy lies in the accessible deconstruction of complex propaganda, encouraging viewers to question patriotic narratives once accepted as absolute truth. The program remains a sharp critique of how collective memory is manufactured and maintained. While this specific journey has concluded, the appetite for historical truth-seeking never fades. You should set a reminder on your digital calendar to stay informed about potential revivals or news.
