Summary
In this new series, American history is told from the viewpoints of slaves, workers, immigrants, women, and Native Americans with color images, a glossary, and primary sources. This first volume begins with the arrival of Christopher Columbus through the strikes and rebellions of the industrial age.
Author Biography
The visionary historical work of professor and activist HOWARD ZINN (1922–2010) is widely considered one of the most important and influential of our era. After his experience as a bombardier in World War II, Zinn became convinced that there could no longer be such a thing as a “just war,” because the vast majority of victims in modern warfare are, increasingly, innocent civilians. In his books, including A People’s History of the United States, its companion volume Voices of a People’s History of the United States, and countless other titles, Zinn affirms the power of the people to influence the course of events.
