La Otra Historia de Los Estados Unidos

By Howard Zinn

In lively, readable prose, Howard Zinn's best-selling A People's History of the United States radically rethinks - and in the process reclaims for ordinary people of every race and class - an American past too often made a showcase for a white elite. He treats history as a symphony of previously unheard voices of African Americans, women, Native Americans, war resisters, and working-class people of all nationalities. Covering a wide span, from the waves of early European explorers to the Clinton presidency, this masterpiece of radical history is now available for Spanish-speaking readers.

"[Professor Zinn's] text is studded with telling quotations from labor leaders, war resisters, and fugitive slaves . . . [providing] a reversal of perspectives, a reshuffling of heroes and villains."
