This book is long out of print and was banned due to content.This history book glorifies some parts of slavery and the war from the Southern side. It glorifies Robert E. Lee and the South and paints a picture of the North not having crops that needed work and the south needing workers (which were SLAVES WHO HAD NO CHOICE!) Also spins lies about the Indians and Colonies and even whipping in schools.It's hard to believe this was taught to the masses of children as real history.This is the infamous book written by state politicians in the 1950s and required in all public schools from the 1950s through the 1970s. While this book does not provide the full true history, it is priceless collectible history book preserving the true racial issues and lies spun as history to be taught to unsuspecting children for way too long.This should serve as reminder of what was taught vs. reality. Now preserved to remind us the lies taught to an entire generation in school. This books is hard to find and out of print. Sells for over $1,000 today.Low reserve.
