What's That Again?

The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History by Thomas E. Woods Jr.


My review


rating: 4 of 5 stars
While I am not naive enough to accept everything in this book at face value, it does have an interesting alternative look at some of the major events in American History.



I was especially interested in the articles on the Civil War, (which the author points out wasn't a true civil war) WWI and the intentional methods of Woodrow Wilson to manipulate us into joining the war, and the chapter about the causes of the great depression.



The book is weak at the point of references. While the bibliography is a long one, the text is not footnoted.



Read it, you may just learn, or rather relearn some of your own history.
