My wife has an essay to write where she has to give examples of where history books offer a biased or inaccurate version of history. I'm thinking something along the lines of:
- Abe Lincoln was a great, honorable pres (when there are examples where he was anything but)
- Our soldiers fight fair, and for freedom (when sometimes they too commit horrible acts)
- How the US obtained Texas, California, other Mexican territories, etc.
Any other examples of where the textbooks got it wrong?
