you would think there had there would be many books about milton friedman as john maynard keynes but there is not. there's a book coming out about eric hoffer but there hasn't been a thorough biography of eric hoffer and i can tell you something eric hoffer is a lot more interesting than so many other people who have many biographies read about them. the point here is that non-blue-collar intellectuals have really overlooked the blue-collar intellectuals that i write about. they are not very interested in them because the blue-collar intellectuals for having a conversation with all of america and intellectuals tend to be distant people who are having conversations with other intellectuals and intellectuals love to write about other intellectuals. these guys not so much. and that is one of the reasons why i wrote this book. red berry is not shakespeare or anything like that but you would think a guy who has put together 600 stores and had his own televisions show in the 80's and wrote for radio in the 1940s, a career spanning decades and decades that they would be more written about t
