Brilliant and reviving

My U.S. History teacher taught on this form of work... but to have it all down in writting to review and show to other people, or on hand for quotes... I love the quotations Loewen uses at the beginning of each chapter, and the reference given to each textbook he reviewed... and if you thought U.S. History was boring, it was because you were not told the truth. So get this book and learn the reality you were lied to about.

Great read for anyone who hasn't thought about history since high school

If you've never had in interest in history and remember cringing at the site of your 1000-page textbook and droll high school American History teacher, this book will engage and enthrall you.

Even people with a profound interest in history and some historians will learn a thing or two from this eye-opening Loewen account of how and why history textbooks failed us as children and continue to fail children K-12 today.

Excellent listen and eye-opening information

This is an excellent book. I listened to most of it during a long drive. It kept my attention without overwheleming me so I could drive safely. The information presented is informative and will change your perspective on a number of issuse in American history.
