Since its first publication in 1995, Lies My Teacher Told Me has become one of the most important - and successful - history books of our time. Having sold over two million copies, the book also won an American Book Award and the Oliver Cromwell Cox Award for Distinguished Anti-Racist Scholarship and was heralded on the front page of the New York Times in the summer of 2006. For this new edition, Loewen has added a new introduction that shows how inadequate history courses in high school help produce adult Americans who think Donald Trump can solve their problems.

Praise for Lies My Teacher Told Me: "Powerful . . . it serves as a crucial counter-textbook to provide a more realistic and critical narrative about the American past." Truthdig "A treat to read and a serious critique of American education." Award Citation, American Book Award "Remarkable." USA Today "A lively critique." The New York Times "Honest and well-written." Harper's Magazine "Loewen's book contains so much history that it ends up functioning not just as a critique, but also as a kind of counter-textbook that retells the story of the American past." The Nation "Every teacher, every student of history, every citizen should read this book. It is both a refreshing antidote to what has passed for history in our educational system and a one-volume education in itself." Howard Zinn
