We all know historical accuracy is important in history books, but what about those which are intentionally biased, like Churchill's The Second World War? Are there any biased historical accounts that you would still recommend?

When a moderator informs you that a post doesn't conform with the rules and that it is being removed we really like to see compliance. Resubmitting the question with an identical title is not very polite.

While there is an interesting historigraphic aspect here, we simply can't allow such overly broad inquiries, and I would again suggest that you post this question tomorrow in the Theory Thursday thread, where we are much more lenient about such things.

Trotsky's 1905. A very good (and one of the few detailed accounts) source on the 1905 'revolution'. Cannot entirely be considered a primary source, but it does contain a lot of contemporary elements that provide very valuable insight into the events and, more notably, the failures of the 1905 revolution. However, it remains an interpretation, and therefore obviously contains a lot of bias. Nonetheless, it's still very valuable.
