Two books for the price of one!

This episode of the Mere Mortals Book Reviews looks at 'The Hero With A Thousand Faces' by Joseph Campbell and 'Black Rednecks And White Liberals' by Thomas Sowell. Campbell explores the landscape of myth and story, following the archetypal journey of the hero throughout it's many phases. This book is somewhat known as a classic and its influence can still be seen today.

Sowell's book is a collection of 6 essays: the similarity between redneck and black culture, exploring similarities of other minority groups like Jews, the history of slavery, German culture and history leading up to the Nazi era, black education post slavery, and history being viewed subjectively or objectively.

I hope you have a fantastic day wherever you are in the world. Kyrin out!
