A People's History Of The United States

A classic since its original landmark publication in 1980, Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States is the first scholarly work to tell America’s story from the bottom up - from the point of view of, and in the words of, America’s women, factory workers, African Americans, Native Americans, working poor, and immigrant laborers. From Columbus to the Revolution to slavery and the Civil War - from World War II to the election of George W. Bush and the 'War on Terror' - A People’s History of the United States is an important and necessary contribution to a complete and balanced understanding of American history.
