Back Cover

As a longshoreman at the docks of San Francisco in the 1940s, Eric Hoffer wrote philosophical essays in his spare time while living in the depots. "The True Believer," his first and most famous book, became a bestseller when President Eisenhower mentioned it during one of the earliest televised press conferences. Completely relevant and essential for understanding today's world.
