The Greatest Nobodies of History

Minor Characters from Major Moments





The 'true' history of humanity's greatest moments, as told by comedian and TikTok sensation, Adrian Bliss

Why did Charles II hide in a tree?
Who ate the last dodo?
Did anything even happen in the Dark Ages?

For centuries, the world's smartest minds have pondered these big questions. And they were all wrong.*

Now for the first time, world-leading historian** Adrian Bliss has gathered together the real story of humanity's defining moments as recorded by history's forgotten heroes. Featuring hitherto undocumented accounts from Ancient Greece to the frontlines of the Great Emu War and everything in between, this is history as you've never seen it before.
