User Reviews

Look up the word hypothesis ...

"I am interested in history ... Vanessa Collingridge in the documentary series, 'Captain Cook: Obsession and Discovery', so often expresses the character of Cook and his deeds in his voyages of discovery in these fashionably emotive terms that I had trouble remembering that this was the narrative of actual historical events, of historical facts, the words 'obsession' and 'passion' and their derivatives being repeated so often in this series."

"fashionably emotive" ... "policially correct" ???

Look up the word hypothesis in the dictionary Kobalt64, you may actually learn something about history.
