A fitting tribute from a great student,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ludwig von Mises : Scholar, Creator, Hero (Paperback)
Rothbard honors his great teacher Mises in under 80 pages - but never did the biography read as if it was too short. Here is a great source for an account of Mises's life and also his ideas from someone who championed and expanded them. Overall, a delightful read.

Concise,

This review is from: Ludwig von Mises : Scholar, Creator, Hero (Paperback)
Ludwig von Mises did more than anyone in the twentieth century to advance the cause of individual freedom. His work as an economist and social thinker will certainly stand the test of time. One of his students was the late Murray Rothbard, who attended Mises' seminar in 1949. Rothbard provides a brief, but very exciting look at Mises' life and work in this small book. The most interesting part of this work is von Mises' role in the Austrian government after World War I. This book is worth reading, but as an exposition of von Mises' life and work, Israel Kirzner's recently published study is more comprehensive. Nonetheless, Rothbard's wit and tenacity shines through as usual.
