Prejudices: Second Series is a collection of essays written by the renowned American journalist and cultural critic, H. L. Mencken. Originally published in 1920, this book is a continuation of Mencken's first series of essays, Prejudices, which was published in 1919. In this second series, Mencken continues his scathing critique of American society and culture, taking aim at everything from politics and religion to literature and art. He offers his opinions on a range of topics, including the Ku Klux Klan, prohibition, the Scopes trial, and the rise of jazz music. Mencken's writing is characterized by his wit, his irreverence, and his willingness to challenge conventional wisdom. Despite the fact that it was written over 100 years ago, Prejudices: Second Series remains a relevant and thought-provoking read for anyone interested in American culture and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
