A patriot's history of the United States : from Columbus's Great Discovery to the war on terror / Larry Schweikart and Michael Allen.

Schweikart, Larry. (Author). Allen, Michael, 1950- (Added Author).

Summary:

"Is America's past a tale of racism, sexism, and bigotry? Is it the story of the conquest and rape of a continent? Is U.S. history the story of white slave owners who perverted the electoral process for their own interests? Did America start with Columbus's killing of all the Indians, leap to Jim Crow laws and Rockefeller crushing the workers, then finally save itself with Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal? The answers, of course are no, no, no, and NO."--back cover.
