The Truth About American History- Mises
I've so far just been through the first two lectures but already have learned more than I ever knew about the subject of state's rights. Every American should hear these lectures.
Highly Enjoyable and Thought-Provoking
Since economics is politics, history simply can not be fully understood by the historian who is not trained in both. Dr. Thomas E. Woods Jr. Brings his rare and penetrating historical and economic insights to bear on American history in a way that is both stimulating and refreshing. This is not the canned and highly glossed-over American history of your seventh-grade civics class. This a passionate, intensive, and well-researched and documented view of history from the perspective of liberty in the best traditions of our Founding Fathers. This series has the potential to change everything you thought you knew about American history for the better.
If the Austrian School ran the world . . . .
Third rate scholarship, third rate economic theory. His ideological lens is so thick it has blinded him to any reasonable reading of the era. Woods's reasoning is shoddy and his selection of sources is chosen purely to serve his transparent ideological aims.
