Where are the competing books? It is pointless to condem these texts without a competing text book.

Remember the name of most social studies teachers is "Coach".

Teachers don't think, they follow these books. Parents need to know these books are crippling their child's future. Perhaps the same parents who want vouchers can support accuracy in texts. Does the SAT even consider history of the USA. Perhaps it should.

Perhaps History at the High School level should not be taught from textbooks, per se.

I was taught World History through research projects and from historical writings, including various important documents relevant to each country and each time period.
