About this item
Americas story from 1898 to 1945 is nothing less than the triumph of American exceptionalism over liberal progressivism, despite a few temporary victories by the latter.Conservative historian Larry Schweikart has won wide acclaim for his number one New York Times bestseller, A Patriots History of the United States. It proved that, contrary to the liberal biases in countless other history books, America had not really been founded on racism, sexism, greed, and oppression. Schweikart and coauthor Michael Allen restored the truly great achievements of Americas patriots, founders, and heroes to their rightful place of honor.Now Schweikart and coauthor Dave Dougherty are back with a new perspective on Americas half-century rise to the center of the world stage.
