by Howard Zinn • adapted by David Wagner & Paul Buhle with art by Mike Konopacki This 272 page, 8 1/2" x 11" volume provides a graphic interpretation of the key points of Howard Zinn's seminal, alternative reading of American history, A People's History of The United States.  If you' haven't been able to find the time to read Zinn's opus, this volume just might be the ticket.  We used to say that A People's History will teach you a whole different American history from what you learned in school, but this book (and/or the material it introduced) has now begun to be introduced into curriculums, as well as bits and pieces being disseminated through the culture at large through the mainstream media, so maybe you've already been introduced to some of the events and perspectives delineated here, but nothing beats getting the big picture, and that's what this book is intent on delivering.  In any event, if you're not familiar with Zinn's work and you enjoy history in comics form, then you owe it to yourself to check this out. hardcover -
