NOTES

Learn the American history they don't teach in school-like colonial zombie massacres and undead Civil War heroes-in this horrifying and hilarious volume. "Americans have been taught that their nation is civilized and humane. But, too often, U.S. actions have been uncivilized and inhumane." -Howard Zinn Shedding light on 500 years of suppression, this shocking exposé reveals the pivotal role in American history played by its most invisible minority-zombies. From colonization and revolution to World Wars and global hegemony, A Zombie's History of the United States tells the powerful and moving stories of this country's living-dead underclass, including: -The zombie massacre of European colonists at Plymouth Rock -The gruesome killing of a zombinated Meriwether Lewis by his fellow explorer William Clark -The doomed defense of the Alamo against hordes of the attacking undead -The heroic, platoon-saving charge into a hail of German fire by an undead Lt. Audie Murphy -The top-secret NASA missions that launched (and often lost) zombies into space -The anti-terrorist program to stop the weaponization of the zombie virus
