The Bridger: A Secular Humanist Odyssey by Jack Wise Kennedy
A 335-page book that really isn't a novel. And it really isn't
a treatise. Just what is it? Jack Wise Kennedy spent many years
in institutions -- tuberculosis got him in World War II, leaving
him with one lung. The federal government put him away for a crime
he did not commit in the sixties. This book is the result of his
studies and his experience in the federal rat holes, from the
viewpoint of an ardent secular humanist. Published by Pyramid
Workers Press -- named for the grunts who actually built the pyramids
for the pharoahs -- and edited by Dan Scanlan. $15.00 softback postpaid US; $18.00 hardback postpaid US
