From the arrival of Columbus through the historic election of Barack Obama and beyond, Kenneth C. Davis carries readers on a rollicking ride through more than five hundred years of American history. In this revised, expanded, and updated edition of the classic anti-textbook, he debunks, recounts, and serves up the real story behind the myths and fallacies of American history.

amazing amount of information very well presented

amazing history book. it helps to understand how the US developed. it explains major events in an exciting style that was very enjoyable. loved it. had a great time listening.

Very well performed narration of our history

Very well performed narration of our history, in an interesting and enjoyable way. The information was vast, yet only a breif portion of our nation's history. It was also very complex, yet easily digestible. The author mainly discusses US history in chronological order, but occasionally bounces back and forth, all the way still offering an orderly and easy to understand story that captivates the audience.

The true history of America.

Loved it! True history, without the built-in propaganda. This is what our kids should be learning in school. Great work by the author.

Great book!

This book is a great overview of American history starting from the very early discovery years all the way through Obama's presidency. I moved to the United States from Latin America and it has been a great way of understanding the history of the country where I now live.

informative but…

having gone through a 7 year court battle against b of a, wells fargo and nationstar. I have been on the inside while the mortgage backed securities fraud was happening. i have over 300 hours of audio and video with my dealings with these banks and even then AG Kamala Harris and an mountian of documents. this book was so far off the mark on what happened, it makes the rest of the information suspect and i can’t take it seriously, however i did find it enjoyable.
