What On Earth Is Going On? The World Is In Turmoil! Why? Is There A Safe Harbor? 
This radical treatise on public education has been a New Society Publishers' bestseller for 10 years! Thirty years of award-winning teaching in New York City's public schools led John Gatto to the sad conclusion that compulsory governmental schooling does little but teach young people to follow orders as cogs in the industrial machine. In celebration of the ten-year anniversary of Dumbing Us Down and to keep this classic current, we are renewing the cover art, adding new material about John and the impact of the book, and a new Foreword.
UNSOLVED MYSTERIES of AMERICAN HISTORY
Did Leif Ericsson beat Columbus to America? Did Pocahontas really save John Smith? Was Amelia Earhart a spy? Who killed JFK? These are just a few of the intriguing mysteries of American history.
Unsolved Mysteries of American History re-creates the most mystifying events of our past and follows some of our greatest historians as they search for answers. Like seasoned detectives, these historians gather evidence, pore over eyewitness testimony, head down some dead ends, unmask liars and frauds, and offer their solutions. Here is everything you'd want in a great detective story: the twists and turns, the intellectual challenges, even the espionage and murder.
Bringing clarity and a beautifully balanced perspective to his diverse subjects, Paul Aron makes sense of all the latest discoveries and speculation, revealing:
"Like the best historians, Aron renews our sense of the past with challenging questions instead of easy answers. And he does so with a style that would make most historians envious." —Richard Lowry College of William and Mary
Advance praise for Unsolved Mysteries of American History
"An uncommonly satisfying read. Aron performs something of a minor miracle: He zeroes in on the very core of historical mysteries and provides new insights for reconsidering mystifying events." —Allan W. Eckert ,author of A Sorrow in Our Heart and Narratives of America
"Everyone loves a mystery and a history mystery best of all. Aron has assembled an impressive array of 'whodunits' ranging from whether Americans are descended from lost Atlantians to who did what to whom at the Watergate office complex." —Ivor Noel Hume, former director, Department of Archaeology, Colonial Williamsburg, author of The Virginia Adventure.
"For those who have passed beyond the riddle of who is buried in Grant's Tomb, Aron opens up more provocative mysteries. A lively tour through our past and an ingenious primer in the art of historical detection." —Robert A. Gross, author of The Minutemen and Their World.
"Extremely well written and absolutely intriguing. A page turner." —Robert Smith Thompson, author of A Time for War and The Missiles of October
