Essential, although I think I like reading Bastiat more (both in French and in translation). Read full review

Review: Principles of Political Economy

User Review  - Jessica - Goodreads

Good heavens what a slog. But, it's done now. Important intellectual history, and all that jazz. Four stars because it's more readable than most of its ilk. This particular edition is the 1865, if that concerns you. Read full review
