Author: Zinn, Howard & Konopacki, Mike

Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States has sold 1.7 million copies in six editions and become required classroom reading across the country. Now Zinn, historian Paul Buhle and cartoonist Mike Konopacki retell in comic-strip format the chapter narrating the story of America's actions in the world. It opens with the 9 - 11 attacks, then backtracks to explore the cycles of U.S. expansionism from Wounded Knee to Iraq. It also follows Zinn's life from his childhood in the Brooklyn slums to the present. 288 pp.
