Make sure you stay away from any of Dr. Rugg’s stuff-—he was a Communist.
Buy history published prior to 1900’s-—get writings of Cicero, or anything by CS Lewis.

His Abolition of Man-—is about how the English schools were destroying the education of children by their curricula (one world communist junk). JRR Tolkien and Lewis tried to get the Classical Education and Virtues put back into English schools, but, he (of course) wasn’t able to do it and now we have people in England who are conditioned and can not think rationally-—like in America. They love socialism—and voted Churchill out because of their love for an ideology they were brainwashed into—and now can not think rationally.

Thanks for the advice! I have only read from the “Screwtape letters,” but have been desiring to read more of Lewis. I refuse to make the conversion to fake e-reader books, so book acquiring is slow. I’ll read just about any worthy thing put before me, but I’ll not pay for one of those e-readers so long as I have a choice, lol. I’m not a huge history fan (mom was), but I do like the subject. So I appreciate your input. I get so tired of reading the obvious propaganda that’s being published today. There’s a real war on to delete history, and I feel confident that that’ll be even easier once we no longer have real books!
