"It was just factually inaccurate."

Give us some examples, Dave. Where Zinn's book was factually inaccurate. Otherwise, it's just your usual asstalk. The asstalk of a conservative Arkansas accountant, of very little account.

A People's History of the United States

en.wikipedia.org

"A People's History of the United States is a 1980 non-fiction book by American historian and political scientist Howard Zinn. In the book, Zinn seeks to present American history through the eyes of the common people rather than political and economic elites. A People's Historyhas been assigned as reading in many high schools and colleges across the United States. [1] It has also resulted in a change in the focus of historical work, which now includes stories that previously were ignored. [2] The book was a runner-up in 1980 for the National Book Award. It has been frequently revised, with the most recent edition covering events through 2005. In 2003, Zinn was awarded the Prix des Amis du Monde Diplomatique for the French version of this book, Une histoire populaire des États-Unis. [3] More than two million copies have been sold."
