This book lays out the foundation for a Libertarian ideal. It goes step by step, showing how a society would function under libertarian principles. What may be the most important point is how to proceed from here. The author lays out a plan of attack. He states that education without including action is a waste of time. This book is easy to read and yet very cogent.

Amazon.com From the Publisher (ISBN 0930073029, Paperback)

A classic that for over two decades has been hailed as the best general work on libertarianism available. Rothbard begins with a quick overview of its historical roots, and then goes on to define libertarianism as resting "upon one single axiom: that no man or group of men shall aggress upon the person or property of anyone else." He writes a withering critique of the chief violator of liberty: the State. Rothbard then provides penetrating libertarian solutions for many of today's most pressing problems, including poverty, war, threats to civil liberties, the education crisis, and more.
