I just got other books that I was looking forward to reading more. I’ll come back to this one for sure.

This book took me awhile to get through but is one of the most influential books I think I’ve ever read. As an American there is definitely a national fervor for America, and this is reflected in our media, society, and education. This is the first I’ve seen of the underside of American, particularly the people who do the not glorious work and make our country run. The people are the embodiment of America and Zinn did a wonderful job acknowledging those who would have been forgotten. Amazing book and should be read by every American

THIS BOOK WAS LIKE 34 HOURS LONG SO WE SHOULD ALL BE PROUD OF ME FOR FINISHING IT!!!! Fr talk though apart from it being INCREDIBLY long I am an intense history nerd so I did really enjoy this extremely in depth realistic version of United States history

Overall very interesting. It does a remarkable job of highlighting and focusing on all the things we aren't taught in school, particularly those of us who went to very conservative schools. It does have flaws, as anything that is trying to paint things from a specific view, but the author is very upfront about those. The copy I have was published in '92, but I have the most recent edition on hold at the library. I can't WAIT to see what he has to say about Bush!
