'How can something be a 'myth' when we KNOW it happened?'
By the 1960's, people were classing the Christmas Truce of 1914 with other stories like the angels of Mons and the crucified Canadian - today, we know that it happened. So how can this be? How does something fall out of history and become myth? Why do we stop believing something?
This talk examines what happened on Christmas day 1914. How it took place, whether it happened the way we think it did, and why people later found it hard to believe.
