Download The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History Audiobook

" This was the first of any of the PIG books that I read. Excellent, well-documented sources, and recommendations of other books on the topics covered. I highly recommend it. "

" This was an interesting take on several American history events. I was especially concerned with what I read about President Reagan. I guess no one is perfect. "

" I am a fan of the Politically Incorrect series of historical books. The series typically attempts to give a balanced representation of history, in some cases having to go far to the other extreme of the accepted version that is espoused by the victor. Even if you do not agree with viewpoints given in these books, it is a good thing to get a different perspective. Certainly, a good historian should look at subjects objectively, nay, pragmatically, as possible. One thing I can say: general history does get caught up in repeating the same mantras or narratives and in reality, as one looks more closely to particulars and arguments concerning the issues in an event, things are never as cut and dry as they are presented in generalities. Unfortunately, it seems a lot of people don't want to look at the particulars and would rather settle for the more stable (at least reassuring) generalities. Give me the particulars. "

" This is a very easy read, not like a normal history book. The author shows things that are left out of history books in schools. It also shows a different side of some situations and people. "

" What you never learned in public school. "

" Best history class I've ever taken! "

" Interesting perspective on American History "

" This book really makes one look at things from a different perspective. Though it is rife with the author's opinions, one can still see the facts. Very interesting! "

" Interesting history lesson. "

" I don't know how to classify this, history, or historical fiction? Author's assertions were rather poorly documented. "

" Some things you may not have been taught in school. A much more even look at some bried American History, critical of both parties. "

" Arm yourself with the info from this book. Especially if you like to debate history and politics. "

" I hated it. Could not get more than a few pages into it. It is way too right-wing for my liberal outlook. "

" [Audio:] Great book. Main thing I liked about this is its states' rights approach to our history. It does a very good job of showing how far we've drifted from a state-centered country to a federal government dominated country. "

" Interesting book. Especially liked the early American History portions. "

" For an alternate point of view of what really happened in American history, and what the text books often leave out, you can't do better than Thomas E. Woods' "The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History". "

" Read this book and defend big government. I dare you. "

" If you are a liberal/progressive you will hate this book. Me, I loved it. "

" Quite a cool book. Not that I'm that familiar with the American History, but it sure does say some stuff I've never heard of and certainly stuff you don't expect many to go around repeating :P Thumbs up for such histories! "

" A fun, short, introduction to the most fascinating interpretation of American history I have discovered. Woods obviously loves his country, but is willing, like Chomsky, to explore critical facts that other authors have either ignored or been ignorant of. "
