More DescriptionMyths were created by the ancients to not only keep people entertained, but to impart guidance on how to live. The gods in this literature would impart wisdom-even if it doesn't seem that way now-to keep the populace in line.In modern times, we have all created our own personal myths-stories we tell our children and friends about how we learned our own life lessons. In this second collection of essays, Rory McClannahan shares some of his own personal myths. Some will entertain, some attempt to impart his own skewed outlook on modern life and others just might make you think.Readers in New Mexico's Estancia Valley and East Mountains got a weekly dose of McClannahan's award-winning columns in the newspaper from 2008 to 2017. Now people from all over can read more than 115 essays from this truly American thinker and writer.
