Known for its lively, clear prose as well as its scholarly research, A People's History of the United States is the only volume to tell America's story from the point of view of -- and in the words of -- America's women, factory workers, African Americans, Native Americans, working poor, and immigrant laborers. Covering Christopher Columbus's arrival through President Clinton's first term, A People's History of the United States features insightful analysis of the most important events in our history. Revised, updated, and featuring a new afterword by the author, this is "a brilliant and moving history of the American people" (Library Journal)., Known for its lively, clear prose as well as its scholarly research, A People's History of the United States is the only volume to tell America's story from the point of view of -- and in the words of -- America's women, factory workers, African Americans, Native Americans, working poor, and immigrant laborers.Covering Christopher Columbus's arrival through President Clinton's first term, A People's History of the United States features insightful analysis of the most important events in our history. Revised, updated, and featuring a new afterword by the author, this is "a brilliant and moving history of the American people" (Library Journal)., "It's 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, author of Spartacus and The Immigrants "[It] should be required reading." -Eric Foner, New York Times Book Review 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.

    Great transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe

    Excellent purchase. Was able to get all three items from the one seller. Seller was able to bundle all three items together into one package. Items as described and arrived in perfect condition. Good communication around shipping and tracking as items delayed and not able to be delivered by original estimate. Thanks to shipping updates I was able to track the items arriving before the extended delivery time. Thank you for making these items available on EBay.

  • Unadulterated history of the U.S.

    It's great to read history as it was written at the time and not get the glossed-over, sweetened-up version. I'm referring to the beginning of Zinn's book that cites actual accounts from men's journals of the conquest of indigenous peoples in "the New Land." Quite horrific! It is a slow read for me, but very worth it. I'm eager to continue on to the more present age and see what my high school history books decided to hide.

  • Excellent book about our horrible nature/history.

    OK, warning, this is a very hard book to read because it displays the horribleness of humanity. In this book, rich white people are the tyrants, and perhaps whites can be evil in different ways that other races, but I'm quite sure all men in power from whatever races can be horrible. I used to wonder why the US government broke all 300+ treaties they made with the Indians. The 'law' was used just as effectively to take advantage of whites with no land, servants, and poor farmers. And it goes without saying, black slaves. I can only read a chapter at a time, before putting it down and being disgusted that I am human, then trying to figure how/why people get so bad. I'm retired, taught college & middle school, this book is an essential read for any history buff/teacher. Also ...

  • Excellent book and it arrived in superb condition.

    I have owned a few copies of this book. I have lent them out and have not received them back. If you would like to know the history of our country from the very very beginning, then you cannot do better than this book. I really appreciated the fact that this book arrived from the seller in near perfect condition. Thank you.
