The Wilderness of Zinn
No wonder modern generations are ignorant of history. It has been rewritten in an Orwellian ministry of truth style by an author interested in opposition only through stories of small counter reactionaries and pretending they were earth shakers. Who is at fault? America of course all the way back to Columbus.

A People's History of the United States" is well researched and written.
Points out that the top 1% control the country and always has and gives many insights. The only issue I had was that the book doesn't recognize that Roosevelt did everything he could (even intentionally letting Pearl Harbor be attacked - the Japanese code had been broken - a book out before A Peoples History is The Maverick War which covers this subject well ) to get into WW II with Germany. But the rest of the book very excellent. Not what we were told in high school or University history classes. The book is in a class with W.E. Woodward's "A New American History" which came out around 1936. To better understand what is, and has been going on, read this book.
