You Should Read This History Book Before You Die

I am currently reading A People's History of The United States by Howard Zinn. It is an amazing book. If you only read one history book before you die let it be Howard Zinn's masterpiece. It goes into detail like no other history book I have ever read.  Until reading the book I didn't know that Christopher Columbus captured Indians for slavery, and yet we celebrate Columbus day because many have been misinformed that he discovered America. It paints Christopher Columbus as a ruthless, money hungry, man who loved genocide.
