The indispensable Zinn : the essential writings of the "people's historian"
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references.

When the the author, a historian died in early 2010, millions mourned the loss of one of our foremost intellectual and political guides: a historian, activist, and truth-teller who, in the words of the New york Times's Bob Herbert, "peel[ed] back the rosy veneer of much of American history." Designed to highlight his most important writings, this book includes excerpts from his A People's History of the United States ; his memoir, You Can't Be Neutral on a Moving Train ; his writings on the civil rights movement; and the full text of his celebrated play.
