Why don't ?

They taught it when I was in school, but I learned more as a kid from the specials on PBS.

Also, evey year they started at the explorers and worked up to the present, so later events (like ww2) got short thrift (we ran out of time).

School history books are weak, often misleading. Modern folks have little stomach for the evil of man. They like their people are nice theories, and history refutes this.

I've got a great little read on this topic but for the life of me can't remember the author! Tomorrow for sure.
