Steve, & Jeff,
From the overleaf of one of his books:
Murray N. Rothbard (1926-1995), the author of
25 books and thousands of articles, was dean of the Austrian
School of economics, restorer of the Old Right, and founder
of modern libertarianism. The S.J. Hall Distinguished
Professor of Economics as the University of Nevada, Las Vegas,
he was also Academic Vice President of the Ludwig Von Mises
Institute.
