Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong
by James W. Loewen
At first, I thought this would be a little different. Mr. Loewen certainly knows a lot, and has referred to plenty of American History text books. This is a very academic book about the state of American high school history, about the culture of American pride, and the perpetuation (is that a word?) of American myth. I quite liked it. There were some good gossip-py parts and some very interesting discussions about how crappy Americans acted towards everybody in history.
