Library Journal calls Howard Zinn’s iconic A People's
History of the United States “a brilliant and moving history of the American
people from the point of view of those…whose plight has been largely omitted
from most histories.” Packed with vivid details and telling quotations, Zinn’s
award-winning classic continues to revolutionize the way American history is
taught and remembered. Frequent appearances in popular media such as The
Sopranos, The Simpsons, Good Will Hunting, and the History Channel documentary
The People Speak testify to Zinn’s ability to bridge the generation gap with
enduring insights into the birth, development, and destiny of the nation.

I love this book. It is a in-depth and comprehensive view of the history of america from a clear and understanding point of view. Zinn's book, while informative, is interesting and well written.
ReplyDeleteI thought that you have read this book before? If so are your thoughts about it different then they were the first time?
ReplyDeleteI had read the children's edition previously, and while it is still very informative, and the pictures were nice, much of the information was removed.

ReplyDeleteThis sounds interesting. Is it written as history or as a story?
