Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me

Categories: History, Politics & Social Sciences

Political scientist Wilfred Reilly takes aim at the left-leaning historical myths he says now dominate American school curricula. Written as a counterpoint to James W. Loewen's Lies My Teacher Told Me, the book revisits the Red Scare, Native American history, European colonialism, the "Southern Strategy" and the Vietnam War, arguing that many accepted narratives about US history are wrong.
