Historian Howard Zinn presents a radical new take on US history, chronicling the struggles of ordinary Americans to create a more just society. From the arrival of Columbus to the War on Terror, Zinn's narrative gives voice to the workers, women, and minorities who shaped our nation, often in the face of violent oppression. Dispelling myths of American exceptionalism, this young people's history reveals the true cost of progress, and the power of grassroots movements to challenge the status quo.
