520 1 |a "American Prophet is the biography on the brilliant life and career of a great American thinker and writer - Carey McWilliams." "McWilliams's life story reveals a figure thoroughly engaged with the issues of his time. Author Peter Richardson interweaves correspondence, diary notes, published writings, and McWilliams's own and others' observations on a colorful and influential cast of characters from Hollywood, New York, Washington, D.C., and the American West. Among those making an appearance are Louis Adamic, John Fante, J. Edgar Hoover, Joseph McCarthy, H. L. Mencken (McWilliams's mentor and role model), Richard Nixon, Arthur Schlesinger Jr., Studs Terkel, Hunter S. Thompson, Robert Towne, and more." "American Prophet illustrates the arc of McWilliams's life from his early literary journalism through his legal and political activism, his stint in state government, and his two decades as editor of The Nation. Not only will this book introduce McWilliams to a new generation of readers, it will also assure his place as one of our most influential and prescient progressive political writers."--BOOK JACKET.
