It is a nonfiction book by American historian and political scientist Howard Zinn, in which he seeks to present U.S. history through the eyes of groups he says are rarely heard in mainstream histories. A People's History, though originally a dissident work, has become a major success and was a runner-up in 1980 for the National Book Award. A People's History has been adopted for reading in some high schools and colleges across the United States and has been frequently revised.

"Propaganda," says Noam Chomsky, "is to a democracy what the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state". In this slim pamphlet, he looks at American propaganda efforts, from the warmongering of Woodrow Wilson to the creation of popular support for the 1991 military intervention in Kuwait, and reveals how falsification of history, suppression of information, and the promotion of vapid, empty concepts have become standard operating procedure for the leaders of the United States in their efforts to prevent citizens from raising awkward questions about U.S. policy.
