4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Pathetic attempt at rewriting historyBy J. K. LangloisAbsolutely pathetic diatribe of salivating political correctness over truth. As a history teacher specializing in the US prior to 1877; I thought that this might be a good resource for 8th grade US history students. I was miserably mistaken after having read only 30 pages of this drivel. The two women propagandists show absolutely no regard or knowledge of the mores of the early 1800s. Without going into detail; the below reviewers had already stated what the book is full of in vast detail. Please read their reviews. I highly recommend avoiding this book as anyone with an iota of knowledge about early America or American Indians in the early 1800s will find these distortions and disingenuous nature highly offensive.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
