520 1 $a"In 33 Questions About American History You're Not Supposed to Ask, Thomas E. Woods Jr., sets the record straight with a provocative look at the hidden truths about our nations history - the ones that have been buried because they're too politically incorrect to discuss. Woods draws on real scholarship - as opposed to the myths, platitudes, and slogans so many other "history" books are based on - to ask and answer tough questions about American history."--BOOK JACKET.
