He provided sources for everything that kinda seemed "out there". Really I guess it just seems which side you're on whether a fact is right or not. I have trouble with trying to say someone is wrong about something when they have been researching and learning about the thing for a long time. I feel like my knowledge on the matter doesn't give me "authority" to say, "They're wrong" because I'm just not sure. You know?

I'm almost afraid to try and bash the book too hard because the professor in my class seems to agree with it as well lol.

usa, a fact is always right. That is why they are called facts. Referencing an article, document, etc. doesn't mean anything unless one actually reads the referenced material.

Only way that you'll know for sure is to read the book, read the referenced material and come to your own decisions.

And they try to tell everyone that liberal teachers are ruining college. Another piece of fiction.

He does say that in "academia" there is a movement to stop teaching US history prior to the Civil War because it is soon after the Civil War that the Progressive movement (also when Levin's antagonistic "Statists") took hold.
