Loewen exposes the fairy tales buried in American textbooks — the myths we were spoon-fed to protect our national ego. He dismantles the propaganda of “heroes” and “founding fathers,” showing how selective memory shapes the soul of a nation. A perfect companion for anyone unlearning the version of history written to keep them docile.
