    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I've read about mr Zinn and his works few times before. Been sorry that any of his books and specially 'A People's History of the United States' has never been translated into Finnish.
    For what i know his books are very worth reading. Will probably try it in English some day.

    I read A People's History in high school, and I think it was a pretty good book. Definitely opened up my eyes to a lot of things. My history teacher used to tell us, on how to take notes on Zinn, "Figure out what Zinn is angry about and write that down."
