Walter Rybeck makes the case for land value taxation, explains how he came to understand its importance, and describes his involvement in the H enry G eorge movement in the U nited S tates over the last 50 years. While the book demonstrates the virtues of land value taxation, it also illustrates some of the limitations of contemporary G eorgism.
