Cool! I'll have to get a copy to balance Alan Brinkley's Amer. History book that we used for my homeschooled daughter. I only used it because we had it left from our older sons' high school years. She even noticed the liberal bias in Brinkley's book, though to his credit, he did have a page in each chapter devoted to 'alternate views', though it certainly didn't balance the bias in the rest of it!

It's funny that in many of the endnotes, especially on Jackson, the Roaring 20s and Great Depression, Reagan, and Clinton, we cite many sentences from more than a dozen current textbooks precisely to illustrate bias. Often, they say almost the same thing (as with Reagan).
