He was one of the most influential American writers of the 20th century, and the six collections of his essays and reviews published between 1919 and 1927 as his *Prejudices* are among his most entertaining reading. American satirist and critic HENRY LOUIS MENCKEN (1880-1956) believed that criticism rose to the level of art when it was used as a springboard for the critic's own philosophizing on art and culture. In this Third Series of *Prejudices, * first published in 1922, he brings his unique-and uniquely witty-perspective to such essays as: - On Being an American - Footnote on Criticism - Das Kapital - Star-Spangled Men - The Poet and His Art - The Nature of Liberty - The Novel - The Forward-Looker - Types of Men - The Dismal Science - Matters of State - Reflections on the Drama - and more.
