Description:
This radical social history of America, from Columbus to the present, challenges traditional historical narratives and portrays the social turmoil behind the so-called "march of progress." Through clear prose and extensive research, Zinn presents America’s story from the perspectives of marginalized groups such as women, factory workers, African-Americans, Native Americans, the working poor, and immigrant laborers. It is a compelling look at America's greatest struggles for justice—fair wages, labor laws, racial equality, women's rights—and how these were fought at the grassroots level, often against fierce opposition.
The book is a powerful and insightful analysis, and its updated edition includes a new chapter addressing the Clinton presidency, terrorism, and the shift toward war.
