Customer Reviews

Thank you Belltower Books!

The textbook I ordered arrived in very good condition and it arrived ahead of the guaranteed delivery date. I emailed Belltower Books with a couple of questions before the book arrived and they responded to my email the same day. They offer great customer service, quick delivery and great prices.

Well Written Liberal Propaganda

This is a great book. The 10 pound hardcover version is beautifully designed and easy to read. The maps are unbeatable. It's a physical masterpiece, worth every penny of the heavy price. You'll miss a lot if you go with the paperback. But the text is a standard neo-revisionist liberal interpretation of American history, and should be read with that in mind. The tone is staid, but the content is often an attempt as persuasion as much as an attempt at education. You should read it side by side with A Patriot's History of the United States by Schweikart and Allen if you want to be a fair and balanced student. This is only slightly to the right of Howard Zinn, but unlike Zinn, Out of Many pretends to be telling the story objectively. At least with Zinn you know you are reading a polemic and he owns up to his over the top bias.

great service, terrible book

Was delivered on time and was in the condition specified(new in plastic). The book itself is clearly biased in not only what is and is not covered, but also in the language used. This book could only be marketed to a captive audience ignorant of history.

great!

I use this book in school as a student, and it is probably the best book to learn a detailed history of the United States.

Great text- easy read- nonbiased info

As a mid-30s woman who never got into history, I was afraid of this class... the text was excellent- a wonderful experience helping anyone to understand what REALLY happened. Very easy reading with notes on origin of conflicts that were never out in the open (Bay of Pigs... inherited from Eisenhower). Highly recommended.
