Three new additions to Literature
If you subscribe to the literature feed, you already know this but here are three really nice additions to the online library:
- Men, Motors, and Markets, by Dean Russell (1959). It is a nice modern history of the car in light of economics and innovations
- The TVA Idea, by Dean Russell (1949). Here is a fantastic blast against FDR's Stalinist scheme
- Introduction to Economics, by John V. Van Sickle. This is a surprisingly good economics textbook from the 1950s, too dated to reprint but really worth a look.

Thanks for the additions.
Can you suggest a more updated text of similar quality? How about for intro Micro/Macro, intermediate Micro/Macro?

IMHO
I thank you on my husband's behalf, because I know he'll love "Men, Motors and Markets".
Like me, he also thinks of you as a distant cousin of the Energizer Bunny. What is your secret formula for finding the energy to accomplish everything you do? ;-)
