Fun With History

On This Day In History
1933: The Barker Clan kills a police officer in their fruitless robbery

Quote Of The Day
"Lies! All lies! You're all lying against my boys!"
(Ma Barker)

It's a fine thing to teach about history in an entertaining way, just as Conn Iggulden does in his marvelous series about the Mongolian Empire, of which I am currently enjoying the fourth installment. Fiction is not required to be 100% factual, bought one ought at least to get the name of one's main subject correct.

Iggulden does; Boney M didn't.

 Still, who cares when they're this entertaining. Ma Baker.
