Publisher's Synopsis
In this seminal recording, Howard Zinn rewrites the history of America, giving voice to those often left out. In this instant classic, recorded on the eve of the quincentennial, the legendary historian returns to the themes he popularised in his masterful A People's History of the United States- how history is interpreted and what that says about the struggles of the vast majority of folks typically written out of the narrative. With his trademark wit, erudition, and generosity, Zinn here stands history on its head, to better illuminate, understand and act on it.
