Acerbic Critic: H. L. Mencken (Unabridged‪)‬

This is a judicious selection of H. L. Mencken's insightful and witty observations, which were written and published before 1923. Mencken popularized Nietzche in America and was not shy or hesitant in pointing out the ironies and contradictions of American life. Brilliant, controversial, and acerbic. Mencken was a thinker before his time when it came to the conflict between religion and science.
