- Summary
- "...cuts through the mindless optimism and outright lies found in most textbooks that are often not even really written by their "authors." Beginning with pre-Columbian history and then covering characters and events as diverse as the first Thanksgiving, Helen Keller, the My Lai massacre, 9/11, and the Iraq War, Loewen's lively, provocative telling of American history is a "counter-textbook that retells the story of the American past""--
