A great many libertarians have read at least some of Frederic Bastiat’s work, but it’s usually one or two of the same writings. Bastiat’s output was vastly greater than what most of us are familiar with, and his life was extraordinarily eventful and exciting. David Hart, an expert on Bastiat, joins us for another look at a most underrated thinker and man.
