Synopsis

The book title and subtitle, "How to Study History when Seeking Truthfulness and Understanding -- Lessons Learned from Outside of Academia", very well describes what the author has included in this easy-to-read and colorful book. The teaching within is organized into twenty (20) "Study Principles" to enhance rapid acquisition of the content. Author Howard Ray White, a graduate of Vanderbilt University and resident of North Carolina, is descended from early settlers of Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee, and has written over ten published books about Southern history. He asks you two questions: 1. Do you feel like historians, schools, colleges, the media and politicians give proper credit to Southerners for their leading role in founding and settling America during the first 240 years or our 412 year history? 2. Do you have difficulty finding truthful and properly balanced histories of the Southern people, a people of three races: Native, White and Black? If you answer “yes” to both questions, then take heart, for within the 55 pages of this concise, colorful guide, you will find the “Study Tool Kit” you need to uncover the Truthfulness and Understanding that is, for the most part, purposefully hidden from the books and media presentations of today. White, 81, recommends this brief book to high school and college students and all adults, including parents and grandparents, North, South, East and West, including Americans born elsewhere. He believes that no American is too old to study our country's history and help teach it to children and grandchildren -- beginning in 1607 at Jamestown, Virginia Colony, and advancing through the settlement of 12 other colonies, the first wave of western expansion, the American Revolution, the Treaty of Paris, the formation of our wonderful Constitution and the creation of the United States, the Louisiana Purchase, the second wave of western expansion, the settlement of Mexican Texas, the Texas Revolution, the Republic of Texas, the merger of two nations that brought the State of Texas into the United States, the War Against Mexico, the 1850s North-South political struggle, the War Between the States, Political Reconstruction and beyond, decade after decade, through to today.
