Shame on Regnery

In an otherwise terrific shredding of Thomas Woods's "Politically Incorrect Guide to American History," Max Boot ends his review by questioning how a "once-reputable" publishing house like Regenry could publish such a thing.

There are a number of respectable books by real scholars that tell U.S. history from a conservative (if not a "neoconservative") perspective, such as Paul Johnson's A History of the American People or Walter McDougall's A New American History (only the first volume has been published so far). Conservatives looking to inoculate themselves or their children from liberal indoctrination would be well advised to steer clear of Woods's corrosive cornucopia of canards. Shame on Regnery, a once-respectable publishing house, for lending its imprimatur to such tripe. Woods' book is politically incorrect, all right. It's also morally incorrect. And factually incorrect.

Once reputable, huh.

Sure.

Oh, I see.

Yes, that's respectable, alright.

Memo to Max Boot: Regnery is shameless and its books are written by and for demented bigots, liars, and hypocrites.
