* United States History, Heritage of Freedom from ABEKA, written from a Christian perspective and hopefully would not contain the false information or and bias in liberal texts. The recommendation is that is well-organized and easy to read. It is listed at the 11th grade level, and is reasonably priced at $24. I have not examined it. Does anyone else know?--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 18:42, 9 August 2008 (EDT)

* The Princeton Review - "Cracking the AP U.S. History Exam." This is praised by some homeschoolers who took this exam, and the text does have an index and a useful listing of key events and terms. But [[liberal]] bias permits this book. It smears [[Ronald Reagan]]'s [[supply-side economics]], repeating epithets that it was "voodoo economics" and "trick down" economics. The book claims that "[a]t first" it had "little effect" and later "results were mixed." It never tells the student how tremendously successful "[[Reaganomics]]" was. Other signs of bias: capitulation to the [[gender police]] by replacing "strawman" with "straw dog," and unjustified claims of people migrating to America 20,000 to 40,000 years ago (p. 63).--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 10:19, 10 August 2008 (EDT)
