I'm Honored...

...to learn I'm the recipient of the first annual Beth A. Hoffman Memorial Prize for Economic Writing, which is hosted by the Foundation for Economic Education. The article that won me the prize is "The Distorting Effects of Transportation Subsidies," in the November issue of The Freeman. The award is named for Beth Hoffman (1950-2008), the late managing editor of The Freeman. As senior editor Sheldon Richman says, "Over the years FEE supporters and seminar students came to know her as the friendly face or voice on the telephone ever ready to assist anyone seeking to learn the freedom philosophy."

So thanks to all who made this possible.

Homebrew Industrial Revolution Now in Kindle Format (Update)

Update: Homebrew Industrial Revolution is once again available in Kindle format. This time I uploaded it in .doc format, so unfortunately it's no longer a facsimile version. I don't have an ereader, so can't vouch for the readability of this one either. If you do purchase one and it's as unreadable as the last version, please return it immediately and notify me. I'll consider it the end of my experiment with Kindle.

In addition, good news from Steve Herrick, who has produced an epub version of it.

And as always, it will continue to be available in free pdf format right here.
