Why would you leave out the entire 20th Century? The most pivotal century in our history?
However, we will need a rewriting of those events like the formation of the Federal Reserve, World War I, the Great Depression, World War II, 9/11, yada, yada, yada.
I think we both get each other's points, though
the three r's though
I had the three R's wrapped up before high school. I always thought history and civics were the most important areas of study in the later years.
Just think if 90% of the country knew what we know.
AND go back to teaching history of the US Government and how it was formed and then go onto the Formation of States and what the States Responsibilities are and what the Separation of Power REALLY IS and yada, yada, yada, yada!!!!!!!
AND ALSO TEACH THE SEPERATION OF POWERS BETWEEN STATES AND NATIONAL GOVERNMENT!!!!!!
I was fortunate to have a friend in HS who loved history and had a great collection of WWII books he got for BDs and Christmas. He loaned me a couple and I was hooked. I read many of his and almost everything I could find in the library at the time. Libraries used to have great book collections. Not so much anymore.
Several history books I read that were written in the late 1990's were liberal pieces of trash. Funny that they were published after the people who could debunk them had passed away.
We homeschooled for a bit, and some of the books written in the 1800's (mostly personal accounts and current/recent events) told a very different story about life back then. The current level of gas-lighting is beyond comprehension. You can't even find some of those books anymore. Unfortunately, someone borrowed most of them (wife was overly trusting) and they've been sold or lost.
