the Treaty of Versailles in order to assist in the

On Lies My Teacher Told Me
1,053 words
James W. Loewen, in my opinion, makes a very valid
argument in Lies My Teacher Told Me. He argues
that teaching (of history) today relies too much
on the textbooks which glorify the United States

understanding of American History and are

events of our nations past. Personally, I agree
with Loewen's statements and find h...
