Hope you enjoy them, Joe. That's several years of reading there, but every one is enjoyable. The Kenneth Roberts historical fiction books are especially pleasant. The central characters in his book all find themselves in the middle of key events in American history.

For American history, try this web site: WallBuilders.com. Anyone who wants a good, honest recounting of American history can find a wealth of information here.

I'm not sure where you live, but it is possible that two of my books might be in your local library or you could get the library to acquire it from another library through their lending programs. They are entitled, A Portrait of the Stars and Stripes and A Portrait of the Stars and Stripes volume II. They definitely are not PC and through the library, it won't cost you anything. They cover 1770 through 1945.

Also, we have some interesting U.S. history podcasts regarding combat, which would also be available free for either listening or download.

If you are interested in the podcast site, just let me know or type "armed forces podcasts" into google. There aren't many military type podcasts on the net, so it will take you to several of our podcast sites.

Also, if this response in inappropriate because of me being the author, I apologize and please ask the moderator to pull it. I'm not trying to offned anyone or break the policy.

A good website for the low-down on liberals and leftist is run by David Horowitz.
The site is really just a well-organized presentation of articles from his
Frontpage Mag.

The home page is here:
http://www.discoverthenetwork.org

A nice page is on the "Leftwing Millionaires Club" at
http://www.discoverthenetwork.org/LMC.asp

The site is good for finding out things that you'd NEVER hear via Mainstrem
media.

I'd like to post the cover of my book, "A Patriot's History of the United States"---which, obviously, I think is far, far better than PIG, but the admin moderators won't let me. (Soliciting, you see).

Johnson is good but has serious errors, especially in his economic analysis. Our book, "A Patriot's History of the United States" is better, and, I dare say, every bit as well written.

You might look at our book, which, I think is better than Johnson and which blows away Nation of Nations: "A Patriot's History of the United States."

By the way, for those who don't know, we have a website to support teachers/homeschoolers with "Patriot's History of the United States," and that would be http://www.patriotshistoryusa.com.

It has maps, sample test questions, outlines, and chapter segments we had to cut from the final book due to space limitations.

Thanks Dave. You won't be disappointed, as more than 40,000 readers who have bought the book already can attest! (Well, a couple of neo-Confederates don't like that the North won the Civil War in our book :)

I am in the last pages of A Patriot's History of the United States : From Columbus's Great Discovery to the War on Terror and I highly highly recommend it. I learned SO much.

Wikipedia is okay, but tends PC.

We use old hardbacks, from before 1950. Try estate sales, used book stores, etc. I've never looked for titles on line, except when I had a specific title in mind.
