Description: New. Guess what? The Indians didn't save the Pilgrims from starvation by teaching them to grow corn. Thomas Jefferson thought states' rights--an idea reviled today--were even more important than the Constitution's checks and balances. The "Wild" West was... read more
"A number of different historical, mythical elements that have become the conventional view of US history...Woods generally applies an "American Exceptionalism" prospective that pokes holes in the Cultural Relativist's and champions of cultural diversity assessments and conclusions...He also identifies the role of "political correctness" has played in skewing perceptions of US history...We need more of this approach!!!"
"Great list of "taboo" questions that the political establishment (primarily on the left) wants people to be afraid to ask, substituting their version for the actual facts. Things which surprised me the most: the founders weren't pro-immigration, liberals got the US into most of its wars, desegregation didn't narrow the black-white gap (and discrimination isn't responsible for it either), WWII didn't help the economy, the whiskey rebellion was a successful tax rebellion (we need more like it), unions are violent and repressive to liberty, US foreign aid not only doesn't help but hurts, S. B. Fuller was a great man, and Clinton helped the butchers in Kosovo. (Stuff I already knew: Social Security is a scam, states' rights is a moderate idea, Constitutional clauses like the "general welfare" clause are abused horrifically, the "Civil War" was a war for independence.) Good roundup of questions that all US history buffs should read."
"It seems like most people today have such a superficial understanding of our history. We'd be a lot better off as a society if everyone read a copy of this book, and stopped believing the myths. Real history is so much more interesting, and makes so much more sense."
