From beginning to end, this is a fascinating interview that you won't want to miss. It will be up at EconomicPolicyJournal.com on Sunday at 7:00 AM ET.
I am currently reading his book. It is a MUST READ!!!! It is much more than a history book, it is a sociological masterpiece as well. I could not recommend it enough!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear the interview. Thank you, Robert, for having Thaddeus Russell on as a guest.
ReplyDeleteI first read "A Renegade History" after reading his article on LRC about why he got fired. Aside from being well-researched and well-written history, the book is provocative and just plain fun to read. I got a copy for my son as an accompaniment to his AP US History text this year.
"Thaddeus Russell Calls on The American Association of University Professors to Defend Walter Block."
ReplyDeleteYeah, good luck with that.
I think this president at Loyola may actually be a mild version of the type of president they have at other universities.
So don't hold your breath expecting support from them.
