/The Peoples History of the United States/ by Howard Zinn
Anyone read this?? Do you recommend it? Wanna loan me a copy if you have it?

It is a very interesting view of the other side of history and Zinn was a good author. He covers things other histories either leave out or gloss over such as the Homestead Massacre and other strike breaking activities. History is written by the victors or politically powerful. The truth and unpleasant aspects are often left out, look at what the pinheads at teh Texas School Book Commission are doing. .
