What is the best work of his to cut my teeth on so to speak?
You can of course browse his “Reflections from Europe” column at the Library of Economics and Liberty here. They also have his first book, The State, online, which was my introduction to his work. You shouldn’t have any problem understanding The State.
Against Politics.
I’ll second “The State”
Thanks for the advice, I shall check out ‘The State’.
I would love to read Against Politics, but I have so far been unable find a copy at a decent price. His festschrift is even more difficult to find.
Liberty Fund has done a fantastic job with some of his other works. I hope that one day they’ll be able to provide Against Politics at an affordable price.
