How We Love Nock
The Book of Journeyman (1930), by Albert Jay Nock, full text in PDF with left navigation tools.
From the social point of view only one thing distinguishes between one political party and another; one is in office and wants to stay in, and another is out and wants to get in. This has been for so long obvious on the face of our public life, and the reasons for it quite as obvious, that if any one is any longer taken in by specious pretence to the contrary, he quite deserves what he gets.

O JOY! "The Book of Journeyman" is a wonderful work which I have enjoyed for many years. It can be read over and over, like most of Nock's books, and each short tidbit is as tasty as any modern book of criticism or literature. One learns from Nock what it means to be truly educated, what it means to be truly civilised, and what it means to be a true individualist!
I do hope that you continue with reprinting his "Journal" books and "The Freeman" of the 1920's (who has the copyright for that--or is it out of domain now?), "The New Freeman" of the 1930's (which attacked copyright, by the way, and the international copyright conferences of that time), Frank Chodorov's "analysis", the early "Human Events" and all the other goodies which you have the opportunity to do!
Cheers!
