People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn is the single best modern history book I've read. Check it if you've not!

It is a useful introduction to the idea that the textbooks you’ve read in school are biased and not necessarily telling the whole truth or even the telling the truth at all. That said, you have to keep going. Zinn is good for getting started, but there are many more comprehensive, intensive, and frankly balanced histories out there, about every issue you can think of. Zinn’s history is deliberately one-sided.
