A Young People's History of the United States, Volume 2: Class Struggle to the War on Terror Hardcover - 2007

by Howard Zinn; Adapted by Rebecca Stefoff

In volume two, Zinn's lively, clear prose guides the reader through the wars and revolutions of the 20th century. Zinn continues his retelling up to the policies and resistance that have characterized the war on terror and that shape the United States of America today.


From the publisher

The visionary historical work of professor and activist HOWARD ZINN (1922–2010) is widely considered one of the most important and influential of our era. After his experience as a bombardier in World War II, Zinn became convinced that there could no longer be such a thing as a “just war,” because the vast majority of victims in modern warfare are, increasingly, innocent civilians. In his books, including A People’s History of the United States, its companion volumeVoices of a People’s History of the United States, and countless other titles, Zinn affirms the power of the people to influence the course of events.

REBECCA STEFOFF is the author of more than 100 nonfiction books for children and young adults, and she has adapted several best-selling history books for younger readers.
