About this listen
"Facts the Historians Leave Out" is a book that delves into lesser-known aspects and perspectives of American history, particularly focusing on the Confederate side of the Civil War. This work seeks to shed light on events, figures, and narratives that the author argues have been overlooked or underrepresented in mainstream historical accounts.
The book is often regarded as offering a revisionist view, aiming to broaden listeners' understanding of the Civil War by including stories and facts that are not commonly featured in traditional historical texts. Its approach to history is controversial, as it challenges established narratives and interpretations of the Civil War, leading to debates about historical accuracy, bias, and the role of historical narrative in shaping collective memory.

Story
This is the first book-length survey of the Union's "hard war" against the people of the Confederacy. It chronicles the St. Louis massacre - the events leading to, and suffering caused by, the federal decree that forced 20,000 Missouri civilians into exile. Thoroughly researched from sources including letters, diaries, and newspaper accounts of the time, it also pays attention to the suffering of African-American victims of Federal brutality. The title serves to set the record straight, to show that the war on civilians was not justified or necessary to save the union.

Understanding the War Between the States is a supplemental history by 16 writers that enables a more complete and truthful study of American history. Consisting of 40 concise chapters, beginning with the Colonial era of North America, moving to the Revolution and the establishment of the US, it proceeds into westward expansion to the Pacific Ocean. But at that point in American history, the Northern cultures and Southern cultures clash in a horrific political sectional contest over how powerful the country's federal government should be.

We know that these men entertained Roman audiences by fighting in dangerous and often deadly games. But who were the gladiators? What were their lives like? And why do they continue to have such a strong hold on our imagination, centuries after the fall of the Roman Empire?

What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities.
