HISTORY AS IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE TOLD: TRUE AND THRILLING.
Thomas Edison was a bad guy— and bad guys
usually lose in the end.
World War II radio
host “Tokyo Rose” was branded as a traitor by the U.S.
government and served time in prison. In reality, she was a
hero to many.
Twenty U.S. soldiers received
medals of honor at the Battle of Wounded Knee—yet this
wasn’t a battle at all; it was a massacre.
Paul Revere’s midnight ride was nothing compared to
the ride made by a guy named Jack whom you’ve probably never
heard of.
History is about so much more than
memorizing facts. It is, as more than half of the word
suggests, about the story. And, told in the right way, it is
the greatest one ever written: Good and evil, triumph and
tragedy, despicable acts of barbarism and courageous acts of
heroism.
The things you’ve never learned about our
past will shock you. The reason why gun control is so
important to government elites can be found in a story about
Athens that no one dares teach. Not the city in ancient
Greece, but the one in 1946 Tennessee. The power of an
individual who trusts his gut can be found in the story of
the man who stopped the twentieth hijacker from being part
of 9/11. And a lesson on what happens when an all-powerful
president is in need of positive headlines is revealed in a
story about eight saboteurs who invaded America during World
War II.
Miracles and Massacres is history as
you’ve never heard it told. It’s incredible events that you
never knew existed. And it’s stories so important and
relevant to today that you won’t have to ask, Why didn’t
they teach me this? You will instantly know. If the
truth shall set you free, then your freedom begins on page
one of this book. By the end, your understanding of the lies
and half-truths you’ve been taught may change, but your
perception of who we are as Americans and where our country
is headed definitely will.
