Review of the Book:
The Great Land Rush
by John C. Weaver

H. William Batt

[This book is re-issued in paperback. This review is reprinted from GroundSwell, September-October 2006]

Bill Batt reports that the book is "fantastic, with several references to Henry George throughout the book, and then, toward the end, a full four pages of discussion. This book is extremely well footnoted, a real tour deforce! The publisher, McGill Queens University Press, apparently doesn't have a good distribution service, so we hadn't heard about it." He says, "This is the best book on our issue for a long time! It's as momentous as Mason Gaffney's Corruption of Economics."

Batt recommends the book highly.
