Sorry, couldn’t resist the headline. But check it out: Murray Rothbard’s America’s Great Depression, Bob Murphy’s Politically Incorrect Guide to the Great Depression and the New Deal, Dave Beito’s Taxpayers in Revolt, and John T. Flynn’s Roosevelt Myth, all for $49! That’s quite an uplifting deal.
More great news: Contra Keynes and Cambridge, vol. 9 of Hayek’s Collected Works, is now out in paperback from Liberty Fund, and just $14.50.

Speaking of Roosevelt, I was watching an English history of WWII. And, aside from any misgivings some of us have about his macro-economic policies (I’m pretty good friends w/ Harry Hopkins great grandson) Roosevelt’s choices when dealing with Stalin were just awful. I think he trusted Stalin more than he trusted Churchill. Sorry, this is pretty tangential.

The cover of the Flynn book features a contemporary cartoon of a smiling Roosevelt on the phone with “Uncle Joe”: “I’m glad you dug up your Constitution, Joe. I can’t find ours.”

In Yalta, was present Algenor Hiss, a soviet mole. That is why he failed, again.

I had no idea how badly Roosevelt bungled things. It really is depressing. Mind boggling that we seem to be heading in the same direction today. And, boy are some people sensitive if challenged on the benefits of government spending and appeasement.
