In 1954; famed mythologist Joseph Campbell traveled; at age 50; to Asia for the first time. In this second volume of his Asian journals; he continues East after nearly seven months in India; moving through Thailand; Cambodia; Burma; Hong Kong; Taiwan; and finally coming to rest; for a full five months; in Japan. Fueled by his remarkable eye for cultural differences and similarities; yet written through the unjaded perspective of a remarkably erudite teacher on his first trip to the Asia he has studied for most of his life; Sake and Satori is a unique snapshot of 1950s Asia and its rapidly changing post-colonial and Cold War tensions.

This is not your typical canned history lesson. Recommend highly.0 of 22 people found the following review helpful. Christians differed on whether to revolt against England.By Thomas SchultzA very heavy book; boring unless you are really interested in the topic; as I am. I didn't know tht there were diffferent convictions about the Revolutionary War. I wonder how I would have felt. I probably would have been a Patriot and felt our country had to revolt.
