Three things:
1. I hate Christopher Columbus!
2. Zinn is obviously a socialist
3. The book is eye-opening and simply amazing.
This is the most important book I read all year. If you're gonna read any book on this list, read this one. This shows history not from the viewpoint of those in power, but those who have fought and died helping the people. I cannot speak more highly for this book.
Highly Recommend
A must-read for anyone interested in multiple points of view regarding the history of the United States.
Depressing and eye-opening at the same time.
