Now in paperback, this is the new, illustrated, and updated single-volume young adult edition of Howard Zinn's classic telling of American history. A Young People's History of the United States brings to US history the viewpoints of workers, slaves, immigrants, women, Native Americans, and others whose stories, and their impact, are rarely included in books for young people.Beginning with a look at Christopher Columbus's arrival through the perspective of the Arawak Indians, then leading the reader through the struggles for workers' rights, women's rights, and civil rights during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and ending with the current protests against continued American imperialism, Zinn presents a radical new way of understanding America's history. In so doing, he reminds readers that America's true greatness is shaped by our dissident voices, not our military generals.

"I have always shopped online with City Supply, but today I finally made it to NWA for an in-store visit. WOW! It is such a cool store. They did a fantastic job with the design/ decor. I spent several minutes looking up at all of the displays… lots of vintage razorback, and camping gear. Super cool. I found several gifts for my sweet husband, including… a really cool sec fish shirt, trout hat, and an Arkansas cutting board. The CS website is nicely done, but the store… you must see the store! I am so glad I stopped in. The associates had great customer service, and rounded out my purchase with some neat razorback pins. Worth the drive from LR!"– KATIE PAZDERA
