About this book

A People's History of the United States is a non-fiction book by historian Howard Zinn, first published in 1980. The book presents a critical analysis of American history from the perspective of marginalized groups, including Native Americans, African Americans, women, and working-class people. It challenges traditional narratives of US history and highlights the often-overlooked struggles and achievements of ordinary people. The book covers topics such as slavery, the Civil War, the labor movement, and the Vietnam War. A People's History of the United States has been influential in shaping contemporary discussions about the role of power, privilege, and oppression in American society.

Description:
New York: Harper & Row, 1980. First Edition. Near Fine/Near Fine. First edition, first printing. Bound in publisher's original black cloth with spine stamped in gilt. Near Fine with light soiling to the textblock edge and a small rubber stamp to the bottom edge. In a Near Fine unclipped dust jacket with subtle spine fading, light edge wear and a small nick to the front spine joint but on the whole a much nicer copy that normally encountered. Zinn's magnum opus in which he offers a different side of history from the more traditional "fundamental nationalist glorification of country.
