Hitchens wrote on many different topics for at least 30 years. He was, for the most part, a war reporter, not a religion writer. I should know, I have most of his books and frequently peek into them for a bit of intellectual enjoyment. So, I for one, will remember him.
I know. But he really seems to have developed a bit of an obsession with his atheism towards the end, and that has somewhat blotted out his other work. Maybe it will emerge again later.
