'The Real Lincoln' blew my mind and 'How Capitalism Saved America' taught me a lot. Tom's a great teacher.

We are fortunate that Tom DiLorenzo took the head role at the MI. He is a great thinker, yet still very connected to the common sense of regular life.

Congrats, Tom, on having this unique honor and responsibility. My path to the Austrian School came through your book, How Capitalism Saved America. I had been bouncing around at the fringes - Friedman, Rand, Buchanan, but didn't know about the Austrian School. In my microeconomics class I would assign different books to stimulate student interest and I came across your book, which I used for a few years. P.S. - my students loved it! Through my tangential association with FEE I got an invite to a Mises Circle event that you were going to be at. Not knowing what it was all about, I went in order to get you to sign my copy of your book. One of the guys at the table I was sitting at was quite excited about Bob's upcoming inaugural Mises Academy on-line class on the Austrian Business Cycle. Not knowing anything about that, I was intrigued enough to sign up for it and haven't looked back!

I loved Dr. Dilorenzo's books on Lincoln and before that I read Ronald and Donald Kennedy and Jefferson Davis Rise and Fall of the confederecy vol, 1, never found vol. 2 except as a ref. book in the library. what got me interested in looking into this period, though being a southener still once thought Abe Lincoln was a good president until noting many contradictions in Shelby Foote / Ken Burns civil war. im wondering if you have ever heard of the Lincoln and John C, Calhoun connection. I grew up in a comunity in Anderson SC, called craytonville once Martin township. the frontier road from Clemson to Columbia came through here and to this day there is a family with last name Hanks and they have a great story to tell. It can be found on line

“I took the money and ran. Turns out I would’ve been fired a few months later.” Genius move on accident. Or perhaps timing, I call it something else. ☝️ Also, congrats about the job at the Mises Institute! You’ve said you wasted your human capital in your past. At Mises, I don’t think you’ll be wasting anything 🙏

I owe my abandonment of the myth of "a good war" to Gene Sharp. He proved by many, many examples how all the past wars could have been avoided with better results, greater freedom.

"The Most Dangerous Superstition" (Larken Rose) creates a monopoly elite authority with a moral exemption. What could go right? Nothing "planned" (forced) does. Law is chaos. It's so dangerous that it could result in our species extinction.
