![]() ![]() ![]() I had to slow down my speed reading when working through the chapters describing Sowell’s work on Economics. The book surprisingly focuses on many of his interests far beyond racial politics in America. As somebody who admired Doctor Sowell’s maverick as a black conservative in a world that attacks (or ignores!) giant black conservative figures so as to marginalize them from the public discourse I expected to be a cheerleader as I read each chapter. This book is not so much a “biography” as it is a compendium of interests that this intellectual pursued during the past sixty years. ![]() Sowell circle our planet a couple of orbit levels higher than me. Riley’s biography entitled “Maverick” that dives deep into the life and times of Thomas Sowell. I used to believe that I am a pretty smart fella…a couple of advanced degrees, a voracious reader, sophisticated political views: I now stand corrected. ![]()
