Jarrett Stepman has written the most timely and important book of this decade. His book, The War on History, is a warning to America that if we let radical leftists portray our country’s past in the most negative, destructive way, we will lose our inheritance from a country which has provided the freedom and opportunity for every citizen to achieve the American Dream.
The author does a masterful job of reviewing American history in a most fair and balanced way. He makes a case for looking at the past objectively and not judging everything that was done by today’s idea of morality. Also, things in the past are not just right and wrong but a combination of how imperfect people accomplished great things.
Stepman takes us through over two hundred years of our history, pointing out how we grew from a country of immigrants, to be the most powerful nation on the planet. He asks if we will continue to be great or will we slide into history as a failed attempt at self government and individual liberty. He warns that we are at a crossroad. One path keeps us on the road designed by our Founders and the other takes us to the failed policies of socialism. We must choose to preserve our past and recognize the contributions of great men, while even acknowledging they were not perfect, as no one is.
This book is a needed contribution to an understanding of American greatness born from struggles throughout our history. It provides direction about how we must pass on to future generations the story of our history that includes a view of the times in which men lived. Stepman’s account of America’s journey will provide a deeper understanding of historical events and help readers reject lies about America’s past. It will bring into focus the great truth of what a truly wonderful gift it is to be an American .
I highly encourage you to buy the book for a young person who has been indoctrinated with hateful ideas about America's past. No nation is perfect but America has achieved more in just over two hundred years than any nation before. The negative comments here, I suspect, are from people who did not read the book or they would have noted what a fair treatment was given to America's past.
