作者：Howard Zinn

书名：A People's History of the United States《美国人民史》

中文简介;这本书改变了很多人从课本上学来的历史观。Zinn讲述美国历史的角度极为特别，他描述的不是美国的富有与强大，而是生活在这片土地上无权无力的那群人。他讲述了黑人、女性、中国铁路劳工、穷人、工人等一切被权势压迫的群体的故事。他们是这个社会的少数力量，默默无言地生活着。

英文简介：Library Journal calls Howard Zinn’s iconic A People's History of the United States “a brilliant and moving history of the American people from the point of view of those…whose plight has been largely omitted from most histories.” Packed with vivid details and telling quotations, Zinn’s award-winning classic continues to revolutionize the way American history is taught and remembered. Frequent appearances in popular media such as The Sopranos, The Simpsons, Good Will Hunting, and the History Channel documentary The People Speak testify to Zinn’s ability to bridge the generation gap with enduring insights into the birth, development, and destiny of the nation.
