Author Bio

HOWARD ZINNs (19222010) great subject isnt war, but peace. After his experience as a bombardier in World War II, he became convinced that there could be no such thing as a just war, as the vast majority of modern warfares victims are made up of innocent civilians. In his books, including A Peoples History of the United States and its companion volume, Voices of a Peoples History of the United States, Zinn affirms the power of the masses to influence major events. Through a lifetime of pointed scholarship and principled civil disobedience, he has led and continues to lead generations in the ways of peace.
