Historian Howard Zinn passed away today. Zinn was 87.
Zinn is best remembered for his book, A People's History of the United States [E 178 .Z75 2005]. The book takes a bit of a populist and left leaning stance toward US history. Zinn's history grew in popularity over time, by word of mouth. The book was briefly mentioned in one of the therapy scenes between Matt Damon and Robin Williams in the film Good Will Hunting.
A copy of the book is available at the North Metro campus library. Remember that if you are not a student at the North Metro campus, you can contact your Chattahoochee Technical College campus librarian to have the book sent to the campus location most convenient for you.
