That's Not in My American History Book tackles the messy details, reclaims disregarded heroes, and sets the record straight. This book explains why July 4th isn't really Independence Day, reveals 19th century mudslinging that labels Andrew Jackson a \"murderer,\" and even unveils the only vice president with a number-one pop hit. With insight, wit, and irreverence, Ayres uncovers our overlooked past.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eProduct image is for illustration purposes only and may not be an exact representation of the product offered for sale.\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor Trade Publications, 2004","offers":[{"title":"That's Not in My American History Book A Compilation of Little-Known Events and Forgotten Heroes \/ Very Good","offer_id":53375500386596,"sku":"9781589791077VG","price":7.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/9951\/4148\/files\/public_efa047a0-ad02-487c-8ccc-6711e84aae3c.jpg?v=1781792691","url":"https:\/\/brookingsbooks.com\/products\/9781589791077","provider":"Brookings Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
