| 1. |  | Herbert Hoover: The American Presidents Series: The 31st President, 1929-1933 from Times Books Price: $5.87 Customer Review:  On the topic of Herbert Hoover, it's really hard to get straight information. Those who hate Roosevelt and the New Deal tend to think he was a golden martyr and paragon of good sense. Those who love Roosevelt and the New Deal tend to view him as a flint-hearted, stingy, evil man. Now, this is... |

| 5. |  | American Places: Encounters with History from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $2.61 Customer Review: Almost all the writers, not all, mentioned Black people and slavery in their stories, and some Jews and Indians. Some of them used the word White as if it were a dirty word. These writers seem to be all liberals who want to prove that they aren't racists. And how many Blacks are going to read this... |
