A People's History of the United States: 1492 to Present, Revised and Updated Edition

THE CLASSIC NATIONAL BESTSELLER "A wonderful, splendid book—a book that should be read by every American, student or otherwise, who wants to understand his country, its true history, and its hope for the future." –Howard Fast. Historian Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States tells America’s story from the bottom up, shifting the focus from presidents and generals to women, factory workers, African-Americans, Native Americans, immigrants, and the working poor. Known for its clear, vivid prose and rigorous research, it chronicles the grassroots fights for fair wages, the eight-hour workday, child-labor laws, health standards, universal suffrage, women’s rights, and racial equality—struggles often met with violent resistance. Covering events from Columbus’s arrival to President Clinton’s first term, this edition features an introduction by Anthony Arnove, coauthor of Voices of a People’s History of the United States and producer of The People Speak. Zinn offers a transformative retelling of U.S. history centered on the voices of everyday people.
