About the Book

I live life like a candle in the wind. Whatever that means. LOL #Mwah #Mwah MARILYN! 7:09PM July 18,1953 THEY TWEETED WHAAAATTT? History's most famous personalities share their ridiculous, scandalous, and humorous thoughts. From the ancient tweets of @Plato and @Cleopatra to modern updates from @Gandhi, @Hitler, and @Elvis, Historical Tweets has all the answers to history's biggest questions: What happened to the dragons? What does “four score” mean? WWJT? For those who can handle only 140 characters' worth of history at a time (and don't mind breaking their history teachers' hearts), this is the perfect book. AUTHOR: Self-appointed Twitterstorians Alan Beard and Alec McNayr are the 1-2 punch of McBeard, a social media marketing agency. Together, they've led creative campaigns for clients like Nokia, Sony Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Universal Pictures, Janus Capital, Alcatel-Lucent, UCLA, and Pepperdine University. They created the Historical Tweets blog in late 2008. Learn more at McBeardMedia.com. Based in - Los Angeles, California: Website - www.historicaltweets.com Twitter - @historicaltweets SELLING POINTS: • Has already received fantastic reviews on Amazon.com •Features in Time magazine and the Huffington Post. REVIEWS: The writers of this book owe me $11.25. Coincidentally, this is the price that my local dry cleaner charged to wash my suit after a swallow of beer projectiled from my mouth and all over my gray pinstripes. This unfortunate incident was the result of having read on page 3 a question from a horse in the Garden of Eden directed to Adam: “What's a stallion got to do to keep you from riding bareback?” - 5 out of 5 stars by My Sticky Suit “LOLworthy site imagining how historical figures would have come across if they'd been limited to 140 characters.” - Metro.co.uk “Snappy thoughts of famous people at key moments in the past, rather than the standard Twitter fare of trivia from web users' humdrum lives.” - Telegraph.co.uk “Who needs high school when history can be explained in 140 characters?” - CNN
