This book has an active table of contents for readers to easy access of each chapter.

Henry George’s analysis and remedy are directly from classical economic theory seeded by Adam Smith, David Ricardo, and John Stuart Mill. The giants had already decried the evils of concentrated land ownership, which they called “land monopoly”. George carried classical economics to its logical conclusion, and popularized that conclusion with stunning effect.

George moved to New York in 1880, where he took an interest in Irish-American affairs. He wrote the book, The Irish Land Question to further apply and popularize his land theory across Atlanta Ocean to Europe.

Albert Einstein designated George a "beautiful combination of intellectual keenness, artistic forum, and fervent love of justice". As one of the great American economists, Henry George’s economic thoughts are still relevant to American economic life, especially in building and evolving American economic foundation to knowledge based industries.

This is a book for anyone who is interested in knowing Henry George’s thoughts about land reform for Europe.
