History books often do not give information in history or they give false information. History textbooks are usually written by a committee of people with specific ideas about history and they put in "pet" history events or particualar political views. There is also the fact that history books can not tell ALL of history because of the simple fact the book would be too large. It is up to the individual or the teacher to learn about history and to learn what is right, wrong, or left out. As a history teacher I try to learn all I can about history so I can tell my students what is not in the book or what is in the book that is wrong.
