Dear HNN,
I am looking for a history book I read in the 1990’s that was contraversial during the period of re-thinking the history we teach our children. It was written by an historia out of Harvard (I think) and was called something like “The Making of a National Character”? It told the story of US History from the perspective of those who lost power; the native americans, the african Americans, etc. I am having the hardest time finding it. Does anyone know the book or its title?
Thankyou in advance
