Lies Across America

by Loewen, James W

Lies Across America is James Loewen's follow up to his 1995 work Lies My Teacher Told Me. The book (year 2000) focuses on historical markers and museums across the United States. The book starts on the West Coast and moves east. Loewen did this deliberately because most of American history is told from a chronological, Pilgrim-first perspective. In addition, by focusing on the west, Loewen covers Hispanic discovery and Native American history.
