This delightful book--funny and inviting, but factually sound--shatters the myths about American history and separates fact from fiction.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i> "The problem in America isn't so much what people don't know; the problem is what people think they know that just ain't so." </i></b><i><b>--Thomas E.
