Known for its lively, clear prose as well as its scholarly research, A People's History of the United States 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, working poor, and immigrant laborers.

Review of "A People's History of The United States 1492- Present" on 'Goodreads'

As stated in the preface, this is not an standard history book. It gives the story from a workers perspective. In a way, it is enlightening . But some times it gets too difficult to bear all the sadness. If this book did not inspired the 1% slogans, certainly in line with them.
