A People's History Of The United States - by Howard Zinn - FREE READ! [View all]

http://www.historyisaweapon.com/zinnapeopleshistory.html

A NOTE AND A DISCLAIMER.

The Note: This great book should really be read by everyone. It is difficult to describe why it so great because it both teaches and inspires. You really just have to read it. We think it is so good that it demands to be as accessible as possible. Once you've finished it, we're sure you'll agree. In fact, years ago, we would offer people twenty dollars if they read the book and didn't think it was completely worth their time. Of all the people who took us up on it, no one collected.

Before you start complaining that this is unauthorized...

Howard Zinn authorized the publication and display of the work on our website.

This book should be mandatory reading in every school IMO.
