Book Review: The Politically Incorrect Guide(tm) to American History by Thomas E. Woods Jr.
Summary: 5 Stars
If you have the courage to face yourself, to possibly ask yourself why you believe what you do, then by all means read this book. It is wonderful and lots of fun to read. If you enjoy your notions and don't want to be bothered by truth, maybe this isn't for you. I bought five books and gave them away for Christmas!Book Review: Good info.
Summary: 4 Stars
A bit brief but good book. Would like to have seen a more indepth writing on each topic.Book Review: Race is and ever was, an american principle
Summary: 3 Stars
I read this book, here in Brazil.Someone lent it to me, some months ago.
Even knowing that there's many correct informations, about USA's history, this book is sometimes so biased as the books, that it is debuking.
To example, there's nothing about the massive genocide, against red indians in USA.Hundreds of american indian's tribes hadn't, a single survivor alive in XIX century.Claiming that pilgrims weren't racists is so ridiculous as any leftist book.
This book has the information that anti-miscigenation laws, were against rapes to black women.Well, this book never shows you that USA was the last country to wipe out anti-miscigenations laws.Alabama repealed its anti-miscigenation law only, in year 2000.After South Africa or any other country.Islamic countries are against religious-miscigenation, not racial.
In another "failure" this book never remembers that USA President Woodrow Wilson, refuse to receive the famous and rich african-american Madam Walker , because she was black.All the 6 last brazilian presidents had indians ancestors, but never any USA's president had black/indian ascendency.
Race is and ever was an american principle.
When this book tells that Roosevelt and even more, Harry Truman, sent millions of germans, hungarians, russians, etc. to Stalin's slave labor, this book didn't remember that they were nothing more than following orders from people such as Morgenthau, Bernard Baruch,etc.The american press (NYT,WP,etc.) in fact, gave 100% support for this massive genocide.
This book claims that USA was communist/nazist foe, but the massive amount of money from famous americans (Rockfeller, K?nh,etc.) to Lenin and Hitler is simple out, of this book.
Such as any other country, USA has his shames and bad years.
Puting USA as an "angel country" , this book misses the target, even having many usefull informations.

This is honesty at its best. This is what needs to be taught in schools.Book Review: way less than expected in every dimension
Summary: 2 Stars
I expected some historical facts, what I got is mostly an extreme Liberatarian interpretation of historical facts I already know.
