Maverick: A Biography of Thomas Sowell, by Jason L. Riley, 2021
I feel guilty about basically repeating a post from the "Current Affairs & Contemporary Culture" Forum, but the need for a "Biographies" Forum hit me in the middle of the night. As a long time admirer of Dr. Sowell, his biography jumped to the front of the line to introduce this new Forum topic.
I hope those of you who feel moved to contribute here will include relevant publication data or, better yet, links for further information, including Amazon.com, when available. Their reader reviews and other information are often superb.
Thomas Sowell is one of the foremost thinkers and teachers of the last fifty years (he recently celebrated his 90th birthday). If I could have any mind, other than my own, his is on my top 10 list. I have been a student of his writings and online teachings for over 20 years. He helps keep me sane.
