Myth America

In Myth America, top historians Kevin M. Kruse and Julian E. Zelizer confront pervasive myths that distort the understanding of the United States' past, which have been propagated by conservative media. This collection features essays from an all-star lineup of historians who debunk false narratives surrounding major historical events and figures, including the New Deal, immigration, and feminism. Grounded in rigorous scholarship, Myth America aims to revitalize the public discourse on American history and is a vital resource in contemporary debates about the nation’s narrative.
