About This Item
"Glenn's story-telling in Miracles and Massacres is moving, provocative, and masterful. Each chapter reads like a non-fiction novelette. The book shows how the good, the bad, and the ugly of American history should be narrated: vividly and unflinchingly. These true-life tales also serve as stand-alone study guides -- inviting further discussion, debate, and action. It's perfect for homeschoolers, classical educators, and history buffs of all ages. I can guarantee you two things: 1) Once you pick up Miracles and Massacres, you won't be able to put down; and 2) You won't be able to read it just once!"
Author: MICHELLE MALKIN, bestselling author of Culture of Corruption

Synopsis
HISTORY AS ITâÈçS SUPPOSED TO BE TOLD: TRUE AND THRILLING. Thomas Edison was a bad guyâÈ' and bad guys usually lose in the end. World War II radio host âÈêTokyo RoseâÈë 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 KneeâÈ'yet this wasnâÈçt a battle at all; it was a massacre. Paul RevereâÈçs midnight ride was nothing compared to the ride made by a guy named Jack whom youâÈçve 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 youâÈçve 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 youâÈçve never heard it told. ItâÈçs incredible events that you never knew existed. And itâÈçs stories so important and relevant to today that you wonâÈçt have to ask, Why didnâÈçt 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 youâÈçve been taught may change, but your perception of who we are as Americans and where our country is headed definitely will.
