An excellent article by Roger Kimball. "Howard Zinn has left us. But his repellent ideas—and even more, the contemptuous nihilism that stands behind and fires those ideas—live on."
Update: The Oscar Handlin review that Kimball quotes is not available free online, but a revised version of it made up part of Handlin's book The Distortion of America, and you can read it here. Also, American Creation and the History News Network have some good comments.
