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 the story of America from the bottom up–from the standpoint of, and in the words of, American women, factory workers, African-Americans, Native Americans, working poor, and immigrant workers.

A People’s History of the United States is an important and necessary contribution to a complete and balanced understanding of American history, 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.”
