Read in one sitting, was very interesting and informative, I liked how it covered a range of topics form a range of time periods and cultures and included information that both proved and disproved each conspiracy as well as including how probable each theory is.
Filed under "ok", this book is a quick read on conspiracies in five categories: suspicious deaths, false-flag operations, cover-ups, political conspiracies, and espionage and covert operations. As you can imagine, many of the older, more infamous conspiracies, such as the assassination of JFK, the Apollo 11 moon landing, was Princess Diana's car crash an accident, did the US know in advance of the attack on Pearl Harbor, and who's to blame for the sinking of the USS Maine are all covered. But there are many more lesser-known conspiracies covered, as well. Some more interesting than others.
The book has some editorial errors that are a little off-putting, but the research (and alternatives given to each conspiracy) is sound.
This book is just what the title says. It talks about events in history and gives theories/ alternative theories about them. For me some were interesting, most were not. But it does seem to strengthen thoughts of how so many things, specifically political, are covered up/not shared with the public for various reasons.
Separated into 5 categories - with many old and new conspiracies that are explored. Some appear to be easily confirmed or discounted. Others remain totally unsolved.
Conspiracies in this book are condensed versions with research to back each. The author relates each conspiracy story in an unbiased approach.

Pretty interesting. Does a solid job of laying out what the actual evidence is that supports or denies each conspiracy. Is a good dive into history if you’re curious about where these theories came from.
