New York: E.P. Dutton & Company. Fair with no dust jacket. 1920. Reprint. Hardcover. "I have a pet little evil, to which in more passionate moments I am apt to attribute all the others. This evil is the neglect of thinking. And when I say thinking I mean real thinking, independent thinking, hard thinking. Most people, when confronted with a problem, immediately acquire an inordinate desire to 'read-up' on it. Did it ever occur to you that you had within you the power to occupy your mind, and do it more profitably than all those assiduous readers? Briefly, did it ever occur to you to think?" - page 2. "Henry Hazlitt (1894 - 1993) was one of the great free-market advocates of the 20th century. He introduced millions to the ideas of liberty through his classic book 'Economics in One Lesson' and his estimated 10,000 reviews, articles, and essays in publications such as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and Newsweek." - The Henry Hazlitt Foundation. Fifth printing of the 1916 first edition. [6], 251 pp. Front free endpaper removed. Unmarked with somewhat above-average wear to original red cloth. No dust jacket, if one was issued. A worthy early reading copy of this incisive work.; 12mo .
