Booknotes Episode: A People's History Of The United States by Howard Zinn
Mr. Zinn discusses his book A People's History of the United States: 1492-Present, published by Harper Perennial Library. The book is a non-traditional, social history of the United States. Professor Zinn looks at this history from the perspectives of American Indians, labor leaders, war resisters, and fugitive slaves--voices that have normally been omitted from traditional histories.
