Henry George and His Gospel is a book written by Digby Cotes Pedder that delves into the life and teachings of Henry George, an American political economist and social reformer. The book explores George's philosophy, which centers around the concept of land value taxation as a means to address social and economic inequality. Pedder provides a comprehensive overview of George's life, from his humble beginnings in Philadelphia to his rise as a prominent figure in the social reform movement of the late 19th century. The author also examines the impact of George's ideas on contemporary economic thought and political discourse. Throughout the book, Pedder draws on a wealth of primary sources, including George's own writings and speeches, to provide a detailed analysis of his ideas and their relevance to modern society. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of economic thought and the role of taxation in promoting social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
