Patriot's History of the United States : From Columbus's Great Discovery to the War on Terror by Larry Schweikart and Michael Patrick Allen (2007, Uk-B Format Paperback)

Accurate history

I used this history book when I home schooled my gifted child years ago. I found it to be the most accurate version I could find after reviewing numerous texts. I thought it was A fair depiction of he time and events. I believe it is wrong to view history through the lens of the 21st century. Morals and ideals change throughout time and we cannot understand or learn without that perspective, otherwise God help what the following generations think of us. I loaned my original copy and never got it back, so this purchase was to replace for my grandchildren a history which is rapidly and shamefully being rewritten.Read full review

Great read concise makes the key points and gets across without too much labor

Great read. Helped me understand how the United States became a country and republic and it is broken up nicely into readable not too large paragraphs that make the main points and do not labor those points.
For some one who needs to brush up or like myself who never learnt US history in school as I grew up elsewhere this is a very helpful read.
Also US history comes up a lot on Jeopardy.Read full review

Learn and know

This gives a true history of the country and it is important to know that. Too much info is incorrect and this helps to clear the cobwebs from the mind.
