You’re A People’s History of the United States!
by Howard Zinn
After years of listening to other peoples’ lies, you decided you’ve had enough. Now you’re out to tell it like it is, with all the gory details and nothing left out. Instead of respecting leaders, you want to know what the common people have to offer. But this revolution still has a long way to go, and you’re not against making a little profit while you wait. Honesty is your best policy.

Haha. Thanks for finding this quiz, Meredith.

It looks like I’m “Anne of Green Gables” as well. The site must have recognized my Canadian IP address.

I’m an “Anne of Green Gables” too. I think I can live with that… But I’ve never actually read the book.

This is a great book. It was part of the curriculum for my AP US History class in high school. Good perspectives on our nation’s history
