The voice of Ian Freeman of Free Talk Live enters the site today, narrating The Market For Liberty by Linda and Morris Tannehill.

Well over a quarter century old, Morris and Linda Tannehill’s iconoclastic "The Market for Liberty" is one of the most important books of our time. Written originally in 1970, it is even more relevant now in an era of rapidly vanishing personal liberty caused by an ever more intrusive and expensive government. "The Market for Liberty" is the antidote to years of government indoctrination, lies and misinformation.

Using clear and concise language, the Tannehills provide an entire rethinking of the whole organization of society, advocating the use of natural law and voluntary interaction as the basis for it rather than the force and coercion of government.

I can remember when this was first published. It is anarcho-capitalistic libertarianism.

I purchased and read it, if not in 1970 when it first came out, not that much later, and it was very influential for me. I probably still have it in my basement, but I'll subscribe to the audio feed, I like podcasts.

Obviously we are as far as ever from a society free from state coercion but the Tannehills showed us why this should be the goal; both ethically and practically. This Book (Mises Institute review, excerpts, and bookstore at link) should be much better known.
