About this Item

First U.S. Edition, First Printing of this collection of essays that examine the presentation of capitalism in history and social history. Works from a premise established in Hayek's introductory essay that capitalism was generally maligned by then-contemporary historians. Includes essays by T.S. Ashton, L.M. Hacker, Bertrand de Jouvenel and W.H. Hutt -- several deal with historiography and two present a contrarian portrait of industrialization in the early 19th century. Cloth, 184 pages. The book itself show minimal sign of previous use. The dust jacket has original price inked out on the front flap and some edge wear.
