Howard Zinn, activist historian, died on January 27th. The first print run in 1980 for Zinn's A People's History of the United States was just 5,000 copies, but it has sold more than 2 million copies according to The Washington Post. Read the Post's tribute and the one by the Zinn Education Project which also contains an interactive timeline and lists of recommended books and websites. We own several titles authored by Zinn, including the recently purchased graphic novel version shown here.
