Howard Zinn. Adapted by Rebecca Stefoff. A Young People's History of the United States
Paperback: 426pp. Seven Stories Press 2009.

An illustrated young adult edition of A People's History of the United States which brings to light the viewpoints of workers, slaves, immigrants, women, Native Americans, and others whose stories, and their impact, are rarely included in history books. It has been updated to include events to the end of 2006.

In presenting a radical new way of understanding America's history, Howard Zinn reminds younger readers that America's true greatness is shaped by our dissident voices, not our military generals. Stories of young people who have made important contributions to history are prominent in this edition.
