Yeah, if you want real history stay the heck away from the books that are used in most schools... Ya' gotta dig deeper... I read a lotta history and once taught "American History" for 1 year and the real story is out there but ya' gotta dig...

As for the lousy scores by Americans??? Hey, what's new??? We are more interested in rote memory and that has its limits in figuring out stuff... You know, like standardized tests... Lotta folks moving in the wrong direction...
