Confederate memorials toppled . . . Columbus statues attacked with red paint.
They started with slave-owning Confederate generals, but they’re not stopping there.
The vandals are only pretending to care about the character of particular American heroes. In reality, they hate what those heroes represent: the truths asserted in the Declaration of Independence and embodied in the Constitution. And they are bent on taking America down and replacing our free society with a socialist utopia. All that stands in their way is Americans’ reverence for our history of freedom.
Which is why that history simply has to go.
Now, Jarrett Stepman, editor at The Daily Signal and host of Right Side of History, exposes the true aims of the war on our history:
- The war on America: World history is full of conquests and suffering indigenous peoples. Why target Christopher Columbus? What they really want to tear down is America.
- The war on Thanksgiving: World history is full of colonists. Why target the Pilgrims? What they really want to tear down is American freedom and prosperity.
- The war on the Founding: World history is full of slavery. Why target Thomas Jefferson? What they really want to tear down are the rights endowed by our Creator.
- The war on the common man: World history is full of victorious generals and populist politicians. Why target Andrew Jackson? What they really want to tear down is democracy.
- The war on the South: World history is full of civil strife. Why target Confederate heroes like Robert E. Lee? What they really want to tear down is respect for America’s past and the reconciliation that renewed our Union.
- The war on patriotism: World history is full of national pride. Why target Teddy Roosevelt? What they really want to tear down is the idea of American greatness.
- The war on the American century: World history is full of bloody wars. What they really want to tear down is America’s defeat of totalitarianism.
If America is to survive this assault, we must rally to the defense of our illustrious history. The War on History is the battle plan.

The author does a masterful job of reviewing American history in a most fair and balanced way. He makes a case for looking at the past objectively and not judging everything that was done by today’s idea of morality. Also, things in the past are not just right and wrong but a combination of how imperfect people accomplished great things.
Stepman takes us through over two hundred years of our history, pointing out how we grew from a country of immigrants, to be the most powerful nation on the planet. He asks if we will continue to be great or will we slide into history as a failed attempt at self government and individual liberty. He warns that we are at a crossroad. One path keeps us on the road designed by our Founders and the other takes us to the failed policies of socialism. We must choose to preserve our past and recognize the contributions of great men, while even acknowledging they were not perfect, as no one is.
This book is a needed contribution to an understanding of American greatness born from struggles throughout our history. It provides direction about how we must pass on to future generations the story of our history that includes a view of the times in which men lived. Stepman’s account of America’s journey will provide a deeper understanding of historical events and help readers reject lies about America’s past. It will bring into focus the great truth of what a truly wonderful gift it is to be an American .
I highly encourage you to buy the book for a young person who has been indoctrinated with hateful ideas about America's past. No nation is perfect but America has achieved more in just over two hundred years than any nation before. The negative comments here, I suspect, are from people who did not read the book or they would have noted what a fair treatment was given to America's past.
Modern academia has come to view American through a twisted lens of political correctness that sees our past as fundamentally flawed and not worthy of celebrating. In their sadly warped view, Western civilization is the root of all evil, and America’s story is primarily a legacy of oppression and bigotry.
Yet Stepman reminds us of the importance of remembering how our forefathers created the “shining city on a hill” that to this day serves as a beacon of hope and opportunity to millions both here and around the world. The lessons learned by past generations of Americans -- the examples of our heroes and the ideals set forth in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution -- are essential to our identity as a free people and to the very survival of our republic.
The prevailing mindset on college campuses today, however, is one where the perfect is the enemy of the good, where virtually all of America’s iconic heroes must now be condemned as racist, misogynistic oppressors. Lost in all of their hysteria are the vast achievements of the men and women who made America the greatest nation in the history of the world and how they firmly established the natural rights that made it all possible.
Stepman’s book is a must-read, particularly for younger generations who have been taught only the flaws and not the greatness of those who shaped America.
