"Lies My Teacher Told Me About Christopher Columbus disproves the myths about Columbus still enshrined in American textbooks with quotations from primary source material that sets the record straight. The poster and accompanying 48-page paperback book sum up the mistellings--and reveal the real story--in a graphically appealing and accessible format that shows the degree to which textbooks have 'lied' by knowingly substituting crowd-pleasing myths for grim and gruesome historical evidence."

Revised and updated edition of: The truth about Columbus : a subversively true poster book for a dubiously celebratory occasion, 1992. Includes poster attached inside back cover.
