Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Henry George For it is not for knowledge to enlighten a soul that is dark of itself; nor to make a blind man to see. Her business is not to find a man eyes, but to guide, govern and direct his steps, provided he have sound feet, and straight legs to go upon. Knowledge is an excellent drug, but no drug has virtue enough to preserve itself from corruption and decay, if the vessel be minted and impure wherein it is put to keep.

Book Synopsis The True Basis of Economics by : David Starr Jordan
Download or read book The True Basis of Economics written by David Starr Jordan and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The True Basis of Economics: Or the Law of Independent and Collective Human Life; Being a Correspondence on the Merits of the Doctrine of Henry George This correspondence ensued on my request to Dr. David Starr Jordan, the President of Stanford University, that he would give me his opinion and comments on Henry George's letter to the Pope on the condition of labor. It may be remembered that when the Rev. Dr. McGlynn, of New York, became a convert to the Single Tax, he was silenced by order of the Pope, and eventually excommunicated for contempt of his authority. The Pope then addressed an encyclical letter to his clergy, setting forth the principles involved in the labor problem as he saw them. To this Henry George replied in an open letter which was placed in the hands of the Pope himself. His Holiness apparently perceived that injustice had been done, and he ordered the reopening of Dr. McGlynn's case, with the result that he was restored to his duties in New York, the order of silence was withdrawn, and he was fully restored to the bosom of the Church.

Book Synopsis The Life of Henry George by : Henry George
Download or read book The Life of Henry George written by Henry George and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2006-10-01 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economist HENRY GEORGE (1839-1897) was, at the height of his popularity in the 1880s and 1890s, considered the third most famous American, behind Mark Twain and Thomas Edison, and his liberal philosophies on taxation, copyrights, poverty issues, and more continue to influence progressive movements today. This loving and inspiring biography, written by his son just after his father's death and published in 1900, draws on letters, journals, and other firsthand material, tells the tale of a boy sailor, apprentice printer, and would-be gold miner who transformed the world of work and hardship he saw around him into a new way of thinking about mankind's usage of the planet's wealth and stewardship of its own inner resources. This is an essential work for understanding and appreciating how one of the most significant thinkers in American history developed his values and beliefs through uniquely American experiences.
Book Synopsis Henry George Liddell, D. D by : Henry L. Thompson
Download or read book Henry George Liddell, D. D written by Henry L. Thompson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Henry George Liddell, D.D: Dean of Christ Church, Oxford; A Memoir This memoir has been compiled at the request of Mrs. Liddell, and has had the advantage of her constant encouragement. Many friends of the late Dean have most kindly contributed to the volume their recollections of his life at various times and under different aspects. Their contributions have, as far as possible, been duly acknowledged. The compiler of the memoir may himself claim, without presumption, to write with an authority based upon adequate knowledge. It was his good fortune to be admitted to Westminster School by Mr. Liddell in 1851. For four years he was under him there, and rose to be a member of his Sixth Form. From 1858 to 1877 he was a resident student of Christ Church, and as undergraduate, Tutor, and Censor, was brought into very varied and often very intimate relations with the Dean. The friendship which he was thus privileged to enjoy extended over nearly half a century, and was only ended by the Dean's death.

Book Synopsis The Single Tax Movement in the United States (Classic Reprint) by : Arthur Nichols Young
Download or read book The Single Tax Movement in the United States (Classic Reprint) written by Arthur Nichols Young and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Single Tax Movement in the United States More than a generation has now elapsed since Henry George published Progress and Poverty, but hardly any effort has been made to describe the single tax movement or to appraise its significance. Substantially all of the literature devoted to the single tax question has been purely controversial. In the present volume the writer has undertaken to give a complete historical account of the single tax movement in the United States, together with a discussion of the tactics of the single taxers, their program, the present status of the movement, and its influence upon economic thought and upon fiscal and social reform. A brief introductory survey of the chief anticipations of Henry George's doctrines is presented in order to show the place of the movement in the history of economic thought. Then is traced the formulation of George's economic ideas in the light of the economic environment amid which he spent the formative years of his life, the California of the two decades following the gold discovery of 1848. Next follows a description of the reception of Progress and Poverty in the eighties and of Henry George's activities in the spreading of his gospel. Succeeding chapters describe the development of the single tax movement through the recent political campaigns undertaken with the aid of the Joseph Fels endowment. Finally there is a consideration of some general aspects of the movement, and an appraisal of its significance. Collection of the material upon which this study is based has involved research in several parts of the country.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence of Henry St. George Tucker: Late Accountant-General of Bengal and Chairman of the East India Company I have but one word more to say, personal to my self. On looking over the sheets of this work, it appears to me that there is, in some parts, what may seem to be a party bias - in other words, a dis position to speak more slightingly of the acts of the old Whig party than those of their opponents. As the supposition that I have written at all under political influence would, very properly, invalidate my testimony, I think it right to say, that ever since I was a boy my sympathies have been all with the Whigs, and that if this has not appeared in the writings which bear my name, it is because I have ever held that India is of no Party, and esteemed the claims of Historical Truth paramount over all considerations of Party or of Person.
