VOICES OF A PEOPLE’S HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES (SECOND EDITION)

Book ID/图书代码： 12070010B39344

English Summary/英文概要： Here in their own words are Frederick Douglass, George Jackson, Chief Joseph, Martin Luther King Jr., Plough Jogger, Sacco and Vanzetti, Patti Smith, Bruce Springsteen, Mark Twain, and Malcolm X, to name just a few of the hundreds of voices that appear in Voices of a People’s History of the United States, edited by Howard Zinn and Anthony Arnove.

Paralleling the twenty-four chapters of Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States, Voices of a People’s History is the long-awaited companion volume to the national bestseller. For Voices, Zinn and Arnove have selected testimonies to living history—speeches, letters, poems, songs—left by the people who make history happen but who usually are left out of history books—women, workers, nonwhites. Zinn has written short introductions to the texts, which range in length from letters or poems of less than a page to entire speeches and essays that run several pages. Voices of a People’s History is a symphony of our nation’s original voices, rich in ideas and actions, the embodiment of the power of civil disobedience and dissent wherein lies our nation’s true spirit of defiance and resilience.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 用他们自己的话来说，马丁•路德•金、马克•吐温等都是美国简史之声。
《美国简史之声》（Voices of a People’s History ）是《美国简史》（A People’s History of the United States）的姊妹篇。前者选取活生生的演讲、信函、诗歌等前人留下的铁证作为本书的一部分，同时作了简介。《美国简史之声》是美国的交响乐，思想开阔，公民的不服从之力以及民族依赖精神的体现。
