Want the true facts of the '20s, '30s, and '40s? This is not just a book by historians, but by real people who lived in the best of times, the worst of times, and the most tragic times. I assigned my students to interview people who lived through the Great Depression and World War II, and the stories were so incredible, intoxicating, and captivating that I promised them I would write the best US history book using their great grandparents, relatives, and neighbors who lived during those crucial periods of United States history.

Not what I expected
Revisado: 06-21-22
The author/narrator is nice guy who wanders down memory lane and seems to feel he is still teaching young students. When he mentions the use of oxen to pull wagons he stops and describes physically what an oxen is. The author has a kind message in his personal stories but does ramble a bit. The narration is amateurish with a homespun feel. If your looking for the nuts and bolts of history this is not for you. But if you enjoyed the stories your grandfather told you may enjoy this book.

To take a skeptical approach to American history is not to dabble in imaginative conspiracy theories; rather, it's to reframe your understanding of this great nation's past and actually strengthen your appreciation for what makes American history such a fascinating chapter in the larger story of Western civilization. And in this bold 24-lecture series, you can do just that.
