I missed version 26 and went from 25 to 27.

With the other problem I am having, I reloaded FF and went to my HISTORY to get back some pages which I was looking at.

VOILA! History is EMPTY.

Today, This week, This month, This YEAR!

ALL EMPTY!

I ONLY upgraded the version.

Why/how did my history get wiped?

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.
