Autumn of the Black Snake: The Creation of the U.S. Army and the Invasion That Opened the West by William Hogeland
Kingfish: The Reign of Huey P. Long by Richard White
The Perils of Prosperity, 1914-1932 by William E. Leuchtenburg
Comanches: The History of a People by TR Fehrenbach
Fire & Blood: A History of Mexico by T. R. Fehrenbach
I highly recommend this book, although it's hard to find. It is an old text book that fell out of use circa 1960 due to its explicit celebration of the white race's conquering of this continent.
@William_1994 - WA thank you for this recommendation. I love collecting old controversial books. I found a copy on Amazon and added it to my cart.
@William_1994 - WA Any chance you could scan the book and upload a PDF so everyone can read it?
Dude that books looks massive it would probably take forever to scan
I had to have my copy shipped to me from Britain. I doubt that there's a PDF.
Partially American History, but also an excellent JQ book.

The book is full length text and has no alterations to it. I checked.
Here's the condensed key points version from the original version.

This is an absolutely essential series written by Edward Ellis in 1895.
WANT
The collection probably cost more than everything I own.
@CarletonJ Actually, I believe this is a condensed version for only $5.71
The History Of Our Country: From The Discovery Of America To The Present Time (1905) https://www.amazon.com/dp/0548638004/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_iwnIAbAF2X04V
*heavy breathing*
There are now 44 "MUST HAVE" books on my Amazon wish list. This is getting out of control.
@CarletonJ If you're adding books, get Uprising by David Irving. Accurate account of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. (JQ included)
Bonus - if you email him, he'll send you an autographed copy of any of his works. Actually, he responds to any and all emails. Super epic.
Thank you so much. For real.
I made a note of your comment
Middle two are good primers on cultural degeneracy in America.
Best book on the JQ in America.
American Colonies: The Settling of North America by Alan Taylor
Request - does anyone know a good book on Argentina and the La Plata region?
@Nemets Be careful when reading Alan Taylor, he’s a narrative manipulating subverter
How so?
@Nemets I’ve only read his book ~American Revolutions~ back in my senior year of undergrad. I dont remember specifics at this point but I remember putting down the book and just thinking “fuck this guy” multiple times. Take it from a guy who’s read a way more “scholarly” history than he’d prefer, any academic historian who’s widely respected by his colleagues is a narrative-pushing culture distorter
@Nemets If they don’t get shit talked by the academic establishment on a regular basis, they’re probably not worth reading. Unless you just want to get that deep in the mind of your ideological enemy
@Tron I'm 2/3rds of the way through "American Colonies" and it seems pretty reasonable. He does equivocate between the inquisition and iroquois cannibalism though.
Even though he clearly prefers the dutch/french way of dealing with indians, he pretty much admits that the english methods were very effective
@Nemets One thing Ive learned through reading all these sorts of books is that there’s good information you can glean from all of them as long as you understand what’s really going on. I just don’t think they have as much net value as a lot of other books. The best thing about them is the bibliographies. You can usually find great primary sources in those
I still like these sorts of books since they put a lot together. I wouldn't even know where to start looking for early colonial demographics, but he has it all there
What are the best broad strokes books on American history to augment and fill in the gaps of public school education?
@Gaius Mucius Scaevola I wish I had a good answer for you
