There is an underside to every age about which history does not often speak, because history is written from records left by the privileged.

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.

Howard Zinn relays history in the words of America’s women, factory workers, African Americans, Native Americans, working poor, and immigrant labourers. 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.
