the real history book.

Americans have lost touch with their history and in this thought-provoking book. Professor James Loewen shows why. The United States dropped three times as many tons of explosives in Vietnam as it dropped in all theaters of World War II, including Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Ponce de Leon went to Florida mainly to capture Native Americans as slaves for Hispaniola, not to find the mythical fountain of youth. Woodrow Wilson, known as a progressive leader, was in fact a white Supremacist who personally vetoed a clause on racial equality in the Covenant of the League of Nations. The first colony to legalize slavery was not Virginia but Massachusetts. From the back cover -------------------------------------------- I really enjoyed reading about the real history of America, not an edited version from the history book I had in school. It is a fascinating book with facts that the author researched. He said out of 12 history books only one was correct.

Learning true history. Real history.

Great book. Very knowledgeable. Finally nice to read the real history.
