Synopsis

JEFF RIGGENBACH, widely known as the voice of liberty, has been researching and writing about the history of libertarianism for decades. This is the first volume of his two-volume master work, The Libertarian Tradition. Each of the many essays inside will introduce you one or more of the most important and intriguing people who developed the idea that we humans should live together in peace and freedom. Every chapter sparkles with Riggenbach's erudition, his wry humor, and his gift for storytelling. The Libertarian Tradition takes you from the rise of the idea of liberty in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, through innovative and playful adaptations by outsiders and novelists in the twentieth century, and right into current debates at the dawning of the twenty-first. Volume 1 includes sections 1–6: Beginnings, Once There Were Anarchists, Fin de Siècle, Between the World Wars, Modern Times, and Objectivists.
