What do Trojan Horses, exploding blimps, and molasses tsunamis have in common?

They’re all epic disasters that history tried to warn us about—yet somehow, we keep hitting “repeat.”
In History’s Greatest The Epic Fails We Can’t Stop Repeating, D.C. Smith turns up the volume on the past’s biggest screw-ups—from military missteps and tech crashes to ecological chaos and brilliant ideas gone hilariously wrong.
Told with razor-sharp wit and unexpected insight, this isn’t your high school history class. It’s a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud journey through the failures that made headlines—and still echo in today's world.
