History Through Stamps: One man's view on how the use of stamps can influence how history is perceived

By Mr E James Chapman

After sixty years of collecting, it was a safe bet that sooner or later I would come across enough postage stamps so out of the ordinary that it would inspire me to write this book.

This collection is all about stamps related to historical deeds, actions, or events, prompting me to wonder about the history or reason behind why they were issued in the first place. Arranging them in chronological order, I quickly became aware of the reality of man's inhumanity to man and how little it has changed over time.

What surprised me were the shocking stories behind these seemingly innocent yet intriguing stamps. Over time, I'm convinced that the truth has been manipulated or blatantly ignored. Wilful deceptions and evil deeds have been glorified instead of vilified, and the facts about many events have been manipulated to someone's advantage.

Could the existence of these precious stamps inadvertently shed light on the true reality of what happened and perhaps bring justice where necessary?

This book reflects one man's view of history as discovered through the issue of postage stamps. I've come to realize that history, as we know it now, was not necessarily written by those who were right. It was instead written by those who were left
