Dark Horses

Among the omens of conservative revival is the fact that many forgotten classics of libertarian/ traditionalist thought are beginning to be reissued from the press. Given conservatism’s stress on continuity with the past, such efforts at recovery would seem, indeed, to be the quintessential conservative undertaking.

Entering into this endeavor on a lavish scale is the newly created publishing house of Liberty Press, an offshoot of the Liberty Lund in Indianapolis (7440 N. Shadeland Ave., 46250). Under the general editorship of David Franke, formerly of this magazine, Liberty Press is bringing forth a handsome series of conservative reprints including The Wealth of Nations, The Theory of Moral Sentiments, and W. H. Hutt’s Theory of Idle Resources (a grand attack on Keynes), to name a few.
