For those of us who went through 12 years of US "interepreted" History I would say that "The Lies my Teacher Told Me" should be REQUIRED reading. It's a fairly unbiased review of US Grade/High School History texts compared with current thought in acedemia. For subjects that are being debated in acedemia he covers the various arguments, and contrasts them with the (often pure BS) material taught to our children.
