edited by: James J. Martin
size: 5.5×8.5″ | pages: 76
Astute commentaries on a wide range of topics by a self-taught working man, covering nearly 40 years, in the tradition stretching from Josiah Warren, Benjamin R. Tucker, and P. J. Proudhon to contemporary individualist libertarian tendencies. Introduction and two appendices by James J. Martin.
The “Libertarian Broadsides Collection.” was published by Ralph Myles Publisher, Inc. between 1967 and 1978. Edited by James J. Martin, these booklets were a serialized series of booklets reprinting (then) rare individualist/egoist tracts paired with new prefatory and editorial material.
This is not a facsimile but an "as new old stock" booklet from the estate of James J. Martin. While these are new and unread, some may show discoloration from being more than 30 years old.
