Here, in the magisterial yet plainspoken style of A People’s History of the United States, is historian Howard Zinn’s long-awaited telling of US history during these last six years, a time when catastrophic machinations of war have dictated our foreign and domestic policy, and voices of resistance have appeared in the unlikeliest places.

Perhaps more than any other American, Howard Zinn has helped us understand ourselves by deepening our understanding of our own history. He is the author of numerous books, including his epic masterpiece, A People’s History of the United States, and a number of recent books published by Seven Stories Press: Voices of a People’s History of the United States and Terrorism and War (both written with Anthony Arnove) and The Zinn Reader.
