Acerca de esta escucha

Since the liberal revolution of the '60s and '70s, American history books have been biased toward the negative. They overemphasize America's racism, sexism, and bigotry while downplaying the greatness of her patriots. As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington, more on the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II than on D-day or Iwo Jima, more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin.

This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America's true and proud history. The authors reexamine America's discovery, founding, and development with an appreciation for the principles of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that have made this nation so uniquely successful.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A welcome, refreshing, and solid contribution to relearning what we have forgotten and remembering why this nation is good, and worth defending." (National Review)
"There are a thousand pleasant surprises and heartening reminders that underneath it all America remains a country of ideas, ideals, and optimism: and no amount of revisionism can take that legacy away." (Humane Studies Review)
"Larry Schweikart and Michael Allen remind us what a few good individuals can do in just a few short centuries....A fluid account of America from the discovery of the continent up to the present day." (Wall Street Journal)

So the book is really good so far. I'm not impressed with the narrator. He reads very slow. There are times that I speed it up to 1.5 times & it still sounds ok. Also, maybe i did something wrong with the download, but it seems to be out of order or at least does not show up in a consecutive manner. It plays right, but its hard to stop & restart

Still listening, but here are my thoughts

This History of the United Stated through the early 2000’s was truly excellent and free of political bias.They told the history free of Political Correctness. I would hope that these writers will do an update to go from where this book leaves off to include the challenging year of 2020.

We Need Schweikart and Allen to do a History Update Through 2020

Great book. Learned oceans of ideas. Reader really not bad but the producer (the real idiot) told him to read quotes in his conceived idea of the regional or foreign accent of the person quoted. Ordinarily, this would have killed the experience but the book is so damn good, was able to suffer thru this embarrassment. Must realize the alternative is to actually have to read this 4 inch thick book in the traditional sense. Time for a redo of the speaker with a new producer - read it strait up - no cutesy-pie accents please.

5 Star despite annoying reader

the narrator was great and the view of history from a Patriots perspective is a breath of fresh air

Despite what more liberal reviews may offer here, from my perspective, the book reveals a more realistic point of view on our nation's history than any written by liberal or conservative. This is definitely a worth while investment in knowledge.

More realistic

After enduring American History classes in high school and college I have finally found a history text that is accurate. After reading many of the biographies and books written throughout the history of America I can finally say that this is actually unbiased and true.
From Columbus through the last administration, this is an accurate version of American History.
This should be the text for our schools and not the propaganda they are being taught.

Finally the Honest History

This book is a comprehensive and detailed arrangement of our history. It helped me understand so much about the events that we learn (dumbed down version). This book should be a textbook in schools today.

Comprehensive!

The book presented a compelling, complete story about american history. I found some of the assertions ridiculous, especially when it came to the more modern period. That being said the author is clear what his bias is and he owns it. After all its in the title. Appreciate the book for what it is, a very conservative history of the United States and a well done one at that.

Good but on a self acknowledged bias
