'Published to great acclaim in hardcover and named The Progressive magazine book of the year, award-winning historian Martin Duberman's brilliant biography of Howard Zinn brings vividly to life one of the most admired left-wing voices of the twentieth century. The bestselling author of A People's History of the United States, a political activist, and a beloved lecturer, Zinn blazed a bold, iconoclastic path through modern American history—from the battlefields of World War II to a succession of antiwar movements. A bombardier who later renounced war, a son of working-class parents who earned a doctorate at Columbia, a white processor who taught at the historically black Spelman College in Atlanta, Zinn was the "people's historian" who himself made history, changing forever the way we think about our past.'
