Miracles and Massacres

True and Untold Stories of the Making of America

De: Glenn Beck

Narrado por: Ron McLarty, Glenn Beck

Glenn Beck, the New York Times bestselling author of The Great Reset presents history as it's supposed to be told: true and thrilling.

History is about so much more than memorizing facts. It is, as more than half of the word suggests, about the story. And, told in the right way, it is the greatest one ever written: Good and evil, triumph and tragedy, despicable acts of barbarism and courageous acts of heroism.

The things you’ve never learned about our past will shock you. The reason why gun control is so important to government elites can be found in a story about Athens that no one dares teach. Not the city in ancient Greece, but the one in 1946 Tennessee. The power of an individual who trusts his gut can be found in the story of the man who stopped the twentieth hijacker from being part of 9/11. And a lesson on what happens when an all-powerful president is in need of positive headlines is revealed in a story about eight saboteurs who invaded America during World War II.

Miracles and Massacres is history as you’ve never heard it told. It’s incredible events that you never knew existed. And it’s stories so important and relevant to today that you won’t have to ask, Why didn’t they teach me this? You will instantly know. If the truth shall set you free, then your freedom begins on page one of this book. By the end, your understanding of the lies and half-truths you’ve been taught may change, but your perception of who we are as Americans and where our country is headed definitely will.

History's greatest product, wisdom and patience.

Well worth the listen. Facts and stories that any person born after 1955, must understand.

A Good Read

Until this book, I'd never heard of Glenn Beck. After some research, I found him to be a radio entertainer. He has written some US history in an understandable form--he tells twelve stories of historical events in America. Most will be unknown to the vast majority of Americans. All of the stories are entertaining and worth reading and actually happened, but one must wonder if all the facts are true. One evaluator quibbles with the author's comments about the number of Medals of Honor awarded at Wounded Knee, for example. Beck piqued my interest enough to further research the stories I'd never heard. Isn't that a good testimony for a teaching book?
