5.0 out of 5 stars Hoaxing is good, 5 Jan 2006
By M. G. Aver - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a chronological archive of hoaxes from the last few centuries. it's a fascinating insight into the subject, and seems to cover all the interesting stuff. The rabbit babies part was nasty though.

The only hoax book you'll ever need- is linked to the museum of hoaxes website, which contains even more tales of gullibility.
