Annotation: "I believe the most interesting human beings, so far as talk is concerned, are anthropologists, farmers, prostitutes, psychiatrists, and the occasional bartender." So wrote Joseph Mitchell, the renowned chronicler of New York City's odder citizens. In this series of articles, first published in the now defunct New York World-Telegram, Mitchell weaves together interviews with Franz Boas and his students and colleagues to produce his own compelling set of reflections on the human condition. This is a unique take on a formative period in American anthropology, and will be required reading for anyone interested in the history of the discipline."
