Since its original landmark publication in 1980, A People's History of the United States has been chronicling American history from the bottom up, throwing out the official version of history taught in schools -- with its emphasis on great men in high places -- to focus on the street, the home, and the, workplace. Known for its lively, clear prose as well as its scholarly research, A People's History is the only volume to tell America's story from the point of view of -- and in the words of -- America's women, factory workers, African-Americans, Native Americans, the working poor, and immigrant laborers. As historian Howard Zinn shows, many of our country's greatest battles -- the fights for a fair wage, an eight-hour workday, child-labor laws, health and safety standards, universal suffrage, women's rights, racial equality -- were carried out at the grassroots level, against bloody resistance. Covering Christopher Columbus's arrival through President Clinton's first term, A People's History of the United States, which was nominated for the American Book Award in 1981, features insightful analysis of the most important events in our history. Revised, updated, and featuring a new after, word by the author, this special twentieth anniversary edition continues Zinn's important contribution to a complete and balanced understanding of American history.

Explores the meaning of the history of the Americas in relation to history in general, or so-called universal history. The problems and conflicts of the Iberian and Western worlds are analyzed as they pertain to the New World where they became the legacy inherited by North America and Latin America. The relationships between the Iberian and the Western world, as seen in their European and American manifestations, are seen as an expression of the relationship of the world in general to the West in particular, that is to say, the relationship of non-Western peoples, including the Iberians, to the so-called Western peoples.

In THE AMERICAS, Fernadez-Armesto connects all the dots, explaining the astounding interconnectedness of this vast land mass, and demonstrating that the dominance of North over South is a very recent development in the scheme of things and by no means foreordained. Europeans first conceived of the hemisphere as a singl America, a single New World, and Armesto brings us full circle. He emphasizes the connectiosn and cross-pollinations - in trade, religion, agriculture, environmental factors, migration (including most importantly, the slave trade) and political ideas - that have bound the hemisphere over its history, from the earliest humans, through the colonial era, to the present.
