For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of “dead white men.” As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin. A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.

Excerpt from Pioneers and Patriots in Early American History The stories in this book are all concerned with the great fight which our forefathers made for independence in the Revolutionary War. They are told with no desire to emphasize the glories of war, nor to encourage any tendency toward militarism; but rather to arouse an interest in our early history, in which war unfortunately had a part. As in the companion book, "Camp and Trail in Early American History," choice has been made of what are considered by the author to be type stories, which shall contribute toward the broad view of the time which we desire children to have before beginning the formal study of history. These stories bring out the character of the men who fought for freedom, and some of the conditions under which their fight was waged.
