    This man seems to be the epitome of market entrepreneurs. Do you have any recommended biographies or further reading on the man?

    Rothbard was fond of Albro Martin, who happens to have written a book on Hill: Albro Martin, James J. Hill and the Opening of the Northwest.

    Folsom’s “Myth of the Robber Barons” is great too. Folsom is a great guy. He emailed me back after I asked him a questiom about the Great Depression.

    I will check out Martin’s book.
