Thomas Edison was a bad guy and bad guys usually lose in the end.
World War II radio host Tokyo Rose 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 Knee - yet it wasn't a battle at all; it was a massacre.
Paul Revere's midnight ride was nothing compared to the ride made by a guy named Jack whom you've 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 you've 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 you've never heard it told. It's incredible events that you never knew existed. And it's stories are so important and relevant to today that you won't have to ask, Why didn't they teach me this? You will instantly know. If the truth shall set you free, then your freedom begins on at the start of this audiobook. By the end, your understanding of the lies and half-truths you've been taught may change, but your perception of who we are as Americans and where our country is headed definitely will.

Would you consider the audio edition of Miracles and Massacres to be better than the print version?
I don't know since I did not buy the print version - but will now go out and get it to add to my library.Who was your favorite character and why?
Hard to pick just one - there are so many valiant men and women mentioned in this book, It might be easier to pick the most misunderstood, and assign him the role of despot, perhaps the name of Edison comes to mind...Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
This book took me both up and down, I am encouraged by selfless acts of honorable men, and also saddened and sickened by the selfish and evil acts of others.Any additional comments?
This is an excellent snapshot of some of the most misunderstood or unknown events that had a tremendous impact on this our country. I would like more in this same format, I'll preorder them as fast as you can write them :-)Incredible stories that make you want more!

Beck keeps his opinion on politics and social issues out of the historical accounts and let's them speak for themselves.
I loved it. It is a book for the family library of every American that values our freedom and has hope for our future as a strong nation. I hope that we see many more books from Beck in this style. I feel his books written in this form could possibly be one of his greatest legacies for future generations.
Amazing history that's been lost with time.
