All true. yet as man, created in the image of God, has created within himself first and produced second, great and wonderful things, we should preserve such things that our legacy may learn of itself by knowing its past.

I don't trust modern history teachers to deliver a truthful comprehension of what man has done.

You’re absolutely correct.

There are still some good historians, and the profession seem ripe for a return to traditional norms. You are correct that even bad aspects of the past offer extraordinary artifacts. Sadly, we have now lost one of the grandest surviving plantation houses of the antebellum era.
