Books by Henry Hazlitt

Henry Hazlitt (1894–1993) was an American journalist, literary critic, and economic commentator. He worked as an editor and writer at The Nation, The New York Evening Mail, The New York Sun, and Newsweek, where he wrote a weekly economics column for over two decades. Largely self-taught in economics, he became one of the most widely read popular expositors of free-market ideas in the twentieth century. He was a founding vice president of the Foundation for Economic Education and translated and introduced Bastiat's work to English-language audiences. Economics in One Lesson, first published in 1946, has sold more than one million copies.
