Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong

New York, New Press. 1995. (ISBN: 156584100X) Hard Cover with dust jacket, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. x, 372 pp. illus. bib. notes, index; 24 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Spine slightly rolled at crown. Dust jacket with a micro-nick/back cover. "Since its first publication in 1995, Lies My Teacher Told Me has gone on to win an American Book Award, the Oliver Cromwell Cox Award for Distinguished Anti-Racist Scholarship, and to sell over half a million copies in its various editions. What started out as a survey of the twelve leading American history textbooks has ended up being what the San Francisco Chronicle calls 'an extremely convincing plea for truth in education.' In Lies My Teacher Told Me, James W. Loewen brings history alive in all its complexity and ambiguity. Beginning with pre-Columbian history and ranging over characters and events as diverse as Reconstruction, Helen Keller, the first Thanksgiving, and the Mai Lai massacre, Loewen offers an eye-opening critique of existing textbooks, and a wonderful retelling of American history as it should - and could - be taught to American students. / James W. Loewen is the bestselling author of Lies Across America, both from The New Press, among many other books and articles. He is a regular contributor to the History Channel's History magazine. He is professor emeritus of sociology at the University of Vermont and lives in Washington, D.C." - Publisher. Very Good/Very Good.

Sundown Towns: A Hidden Dimension of Segregation in America

New York and London, New Press. 2005, First Edition, First Printing. (ISBN: 156584887X) Hard Cover with dust jacket, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Collectible, x, 562 pp. illus. maps, bib. notes, index; 25 cm. Tight, clean copy. Dust jacket protected in a mylar book cover. "'Don't let the sun go down on you in this town.' We equate these words with the Jim Crow South but, in a sweeping analysis of American residential patterns, award-winning and bestselling author James W. Loewen demonstrates that strict racial exclusion was the norm in American towns and villages from sea to shining sea for much of the twentieth century. Weaving history, personal narrative, and hard-nosed analysis, Loewen shows that the sundown town was--and is--an American institution with a powerful and disturbing history of its own, told here for the first time. In Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and elsewhere, sundown towns were created in waves of violence in the early decades of the twentieth century, and then maintained well into the contemporary era. Sundown Towns redraws the map of race relations, extending the lines of racial oppression through the backyard of millions of Americans--and lobbing an intellectual hand grenade into the debates over race and racism today. / James W. Loewen is the bestselling author of Lies My Teacher Told Me (with combined hardcover and paperback sales of 600,000) and Lies Across America, both from The New Press, among many other books and articles. He is a regular contributor to the History Channel's History magazine. He is professor emeritus of sociology at the University of Vermont and lives in Washington, D.C." - Publisher. Fine/Fine.
