The "Who Is" Series
We are putting hard copies of these small monographs in any store order that includes a book by the author. The plan is to double and triple the number of authors covered, until they all have a monograph, and continue to include them free in shipped orders. Of course we hope that people will read them and pass them around.- Who is Albert Jay Nock?
- Who is John T. Flynn?
- Who is Ludwig von Mises?
- Who is Murray N. Rothbard?
- Who is Garet Garrett?
- Who is Ludwig Lachmann?
- Who is Henry Hazlitt?
- Who is Wilhelm Roepke?
- Who is Frederic Bastiat?
- Who is F.A. Hayek?
- Who is Frank Chodorov?

Seriously NO!
Anyways, I am a person who read The Driver, rather than Atlas Shrugged, so for me its more "Who is Henry Galt?" .

With the recent doings in the Minneapolis Wheat pits, might be a good time to advertise 'Satan's Bushel' in Futures magazine..

Who is Lysander Spooner?
Ah, but the store doesn't have his major works.
What about de Mariana, Cantillon, Turgot, Say, Menger, Wicksteed, Boehm-Bawerk, Fetter, Mises, Hutt...

They've got one for Mises. However, most of those people listed, with the exception Bastiat, are mostly icons of the Old Right and not just major figures of Austrian Economics. Which I think makes sense since one of the great things about the Ron Paul candidacy is the rediscovery of a lot of these figures. Ron Paul has opened up the eyes I think of many people who were disgusted by the "government is the solution" left-wing crowd, but were equally disgusted by the war-mongering and police-state right. I know I myself was. What a relief that I discovered a little book called "The Adventures of Jonathan Gullible" by Kenneth Schoolyard, which hinted to me the names of Bastiat, Rothbard, and Mises and led me to the Mises Institute.
