<b>“Thought-provoking—a must read for [everyone] seeking a firm grasp of accurate American history."  —Kirkus (starred review)<br><br><i>Brilliant, readable, and raw</i>. Maj. (ret.) Danny Sjursen, who served combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan and later taught history at West Point, delivers a true epic and the perfect companion to Howard Zinn’s <i>A People’s History of the United States</i>.</b><br><br>Sjursen shifts the lens and challenges readers to think critically and to apply common sense to their understanding of our nation''s past—and present—so we can view history as never before.<br><br><i>A True History of the United States</i> was inspired by a course that Sjursen taught to cadets at West Point, his alma mater. With chapter titles such as "Patriots or Insurgents?" and "The Decade That Roared and Wept", <i>A True History</i> is accurate with respect to the facts and intellectually honest in its presentation and analysis.<
