Lies My Teacher Told Me for Young Readers: Everything American History Textbooks Get Wrong

Ever After Books
$0.00

Description

\nNow adapted for young readers in grades 7 and up, the national bestseller that makes real American history come alive in all of its conflict, drama, and complexity<\/strong>

\n<\/div>
\nLies My Teacher Told Me<\/em> is one of the most important—and successful—history books of our time. Having sold nearly two million copies, the book won an American Book Award and the Oliver Cromwell Cox Award for Distinguished Anti-Racist Scholarship. Now Rebecca Stefoff, the acclaimed nonfiction children’s writer who adapted Howard Zinn’s bestseller A People’s History of the United States<\/em> for young readers, turns Loewen’s beloved work into Lies My Teacher Told Me for Young Readers<\/em>. <\/div>

<\/div>
Essential reading in our age of fake news and slippery, sloppy history, Lies My Teacher Told Me for Young Readers<\/em> cuts through the mindless optimism and outright lies featured in most textbooks. Beginning with pre-Columbian history and then covering characters and events as diverse as Helen Keller, the first Thanksgiving, the My Lai massacre, 9/11, and the Iraq War, Loewen’s lively, provocative telling of American history is a “counter-textbook that retells the story of the American past” (The Nation<\/em>).<\/div>

<\/div>
Like the original, this streamlined and abridged version for young readers is rich in vivid details and quotations from primary sources. Lies My Teacher Told Me for Young Readers<\/em> brings this classic text to a new generation of readers (and their parents and teachers) who will welcome and value its honesty, its humor, and its integrity.<\/div>
