review 1: A very interesting book - Larry Schweikart examines what he calls '48 Liberal Lies About American History' and seeks to debunk them based on facts, statistics, and (if that doesn't work) name-calling. I agreed with most of his conclusions (that it is a lie to say that women had no rights in early America, the early colonies were intolerant and racist, early America was home to few guns or gun owners, the Scopes Trial proved that Darwin was correct and Christians were backward, etc.) but I disagreed with four of them. So I took off a star. :)
review 2: Although I do not believe every "fact" written in this book, the author shows how we may believe certain aspects oh history according to whom does the story telling. There are some very interesting facts that the ... moreauthor attempts to refute, although personally I have done research in some of these areas and still believe the data I did, rather than the authors. Overall, it is well written and informative, even if I don't like the information it is telling me. less
