A few stories this week have opened up new points of debate about some historical conundrums. According to Reuters, “Italian scientists say they have proved Napoleon was not poisoned, scotching the legend the French emperor was murdered by his British jailors.” The Independent reports on “Hitler’s lost fleet” of U-boats, which have been found in the Black Sea. And the Prime Minister of Australia “apologized on Wednesday for the historic mistreatment of Aborigines, moving many Aborigines to tears and prompting cheers from huge crowds gathered in cities across the nation.”
