看着封面和可怕的历史很相像，想问问有可怕的历史这套书的tX，这两套书是不是一回事。

这套书网上直找到一本 , 可以对照比对一下，看看。

可怕的历史我看过中文版，对照了一下 You Wouldn't Want To Be An Egyptian Mummy!-------（这本书我在别的地方买过），两本的作者不是一个人，应该不是同一套书。我没有扫描仪，没法扫描

可怕的历史，英文原版没见过，听说它的引进了的中文版是《黑暗历史现场》14册，新版中文版为《818历史真相》14册，内容看来是一样的。
翻过一本《黑暗历史现场：鸡飞狗跳的英伦大轰炸》，和You Wouldn't Want To Be 系列好象排版不太一样，作者好象不一样。

版版的书好漂亮，我跟着妮版收了几本历史方面的
Would You Believe……
是某一种物品的发展史，也蛮好玩的，文字跟你贴的差不多，小猴挺喜欢的，已经自己看了一遍图了
