Andorak's descendants still rule that land."-Brief History of the Empire, Book III While it is true that the book was out in, I doubt that the developers at Bethesda would have put the book in unless the lore was supposed to be considered up to date (it is supposed to be a History book after all). people don't just get rid of a book because it's no longer historically relevant. Your forgetting the fact that this is a game here. If Bethesda followed what you are saying then we would certainly be seeing alot more in-game books, as many from the past games have been left out. remember what Urog says, books are often mistreated and destroyed, but a book as widespread as the brief history of the empire isn't going to be removed or destroyed just because it's outdated.

many public schools in america are using history books written up to twenty years ago. and as you said it's a game, they have some books already written into the previous games, why not just copy a bunch of them and place them in skyrim, now they have much less to write.
