Our good friend (and sometimes-Grail-blogger), Mitch Horowitz, has a half-hour video presentation over at Big Think discussing ‘the occult’ and other aspects of his book Occult America (recently released in paperback, see Amazon US and UK). I’ve embedded the complete video below, or you can visit the BT site to choose particular ‘chapters’ from the presentation.
Recently Occult America was awarded the 2010 PEN Oakland/Josephine Miles Award for literary excellence, so congrats to Mitch on receiving some just reward. You read more from Mitch over at his website, mitchhorowitz.com
