History that occurred eg. 2000 years ago is still being re-written today due to new evidences which have surfaced; WWII is no different. As certain archives, or private collections become known and their newly found contents oppose previously published claims, then the history books will naturally need updating. For instance the Russian TsAMO archives contains a special "Trophy Fond" which alone contains well over 2 MILLION pages of captured Axis documents throughout WWII, therefore it should be no surprise that when these become available the 'current' history books and chronicles may need certain updates and/or corrections. Any author which strives to accurately document history based on original documents to the best of his/her ability should not be condemned if inaccuracies appear in their works. No author is safe from this reality. As such, much of the "un-pruned" inaccuracies within history books are not a result of intentional tampering with data, rather simply the lack off access to new information which was not available during the time before publication. Every author is susceptible to this reality. As time flies by, our knowledge of the past becomes more complete, while new publications very often build on the ones published in the past.
