Iconic American history has its standard versions, endlessly promoted by school books and popular culture. In HI$TORY, NPR’s Peter Sagal takes us on an irreverent romp behind the myths to reveal the fascinating truth of how money makes the world go around. Watergate reveals that Nixon wanted money and power, and his personal greed led to the infamous break-in; what drove the Civil War was slavery, and in 1860 southern slaves were worth more than all the land and all the cash in America; those rugged individuals that movies taught us settled the west actually lived at the mercy of tycoons who ran the Transcontinental Railroad; and the Cold War was a history when Russian citizens learned that capitalism is a material world.
