A People’s History of the United States: The Civil War to the Present

An abridged classroom edition of Howard Zinn’s bestselling history of the United States, with teaching materials to accompany each chapter.

Like Volume I, each chapter in Volume II provides exercises and teaching materials that allow students to begin a critical inquiry into the American past. Volume II covers the Civil War through the present, with new chapters on the Clinton Presidency, the 2000 elections, and the “war on terrorism.”
