    A Purchase You'll Never Regret
  

*by M***H on Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2015*

For a realistic, surprisingly interesting history of the United States that's not mostly just a list of presidents and dates of wars, this is an excellent resource.  Howard Zinn thinks far more about the causes and details of some of the most important aspects of our past than one usually sees.  I just wish the history textbooks for my public school years had been written by this man.  There would be many more history buffs in the world, and far more people who understand the cycles of history and their importance.  Zinn includes peoples and issues that most histories never bother to acknowledge at all, regardless of their actual importance.  I can't help wondering how different (and better understood) our current times would be if we had all been exposed to a more complete, thoughtful history of our country--like this one--from the time we entered school.

    Should be required reading  for ALL hi-school seniors
  

*by E***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2013*

...and smart hi-school freshmen.  Along with every literate American.  This book by Zinn cuts out ALL the propaganda delivered by history books written by authors on the payroll of the victors.  For instance, the first thing you'll learn here is that our so-called heroic discoverer, Christopher Columbus, was an immoral subhuman psychopath who just happened to know how to sort-of navigate a ship (tho he was only off by 10,000 miles) who by any standards of decency should have been run thru with a spear the instant he set foot on land.  Then Cortes and Pizarro, likewise men with no conscience, did the same thing under the authority of the King of Spain AND the Pope, who answered a priest's inquiry about the morality of what they were doing  (planned massacres of the natives using trickery and metal weapons) that such behavior "had been approved by the highest authorities".  Not only were these mass murders carried out in the name of God and King, the perpetrators were proud of their deeds and bragged about their evil work in open letters which have been preserved as objects of pride.  You will cry and rage in the same paragraph.  The meanness and stupidity and avarice continues by way of stories of the people of the new land, a testament only to greater men and women who overcame such horrible beginnings (Pilgrims?  Good folks?  Read this book and be appalled.)I'm 72 yrs old - and have just realized that I (we all) should have read this book the year it was published, that we be not so self-righteous about our origins, as well as more alert to the damages done by greed-driven sociopaths in high places.

    What they didn't teach you in high school history class
  

*by S***T on Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2021*

Great story of the groups in the US that did not win. The women, immigrants, black people, mine workers, strikers, etc. As I read it I thought "did this really happen this way?" and then I got up to the 60's where I had expercience the history first hand and saw that what Zinn was saying was true for that period and must be for the previous 200 years. A real eye-opener. Should be required reading in HS.
