Fine original first issue of the New Individualist Review magazine published in April 1961 to advance free, private enterprise, limited government, and human liberty. The New Individualist Review was the brainchild of several prominent political and economic scholars associated with the University of Chicago as well as the Intercollegiate Society of Individualists (ISI), founded in 1953 by journalist Frank Chodorov to promote conservatism and individualism on college campuses, and the Mont Pelerin Society, founded in 1947 by F. A. Hayek to promote classical liberalism following the publication of his The Road to Serfdom in 1944. The magazine was founded to advance the ideals of free, private enterprise, limited government, and individual human freedom.

Exceptional first edition of Ayn Rand's (1905-1982) magnum opus and libertarian classic. Reportedly born from a conversation between Rand and fellow libertarian novelist, Isabel Paterson, Atlas Shrugged explores the morality of self-interest by depicting the consequences of a general strike by creative professionals who henceforth refuse to share with the world their art, innovations, and ideas. Set in a dystopic future America, Atlas Shrugged combines science fiction, mystery, philosophy, and romance to investigate several…

New York: Random House, 1959. First Random House edition. Octavo. Original blue cloth decorated in black with gilt lettering and dust jacket (not price-clipped). Creasing to board edges with some rubbing to cloth; minor edgewear and scuffing to dust jacket. Near-fine.. Bright first Random House edition of Ayn Rand's (1905-1982) debut novel about life in post-revolutionary Russia. First published by Random House in 1959 following the commercial success of Rand's 1957 best-seller Atlas Shrugged, We the Living tells the story of Kira Argounova, a fierce and independent spirit who struggles against the collectivism of Soviet Russia during the early 1920s. The novel was first completed in 1934 but, despite H. L. Mencken's support, failed to attract a publisher until 1935 when Macmillan agreed to publish the work. Macmillan's agreement to publish Rand's novel purportedly sparked debate within the publisher's editorial ranks, with certain communist-sympathetic editors objecting to its publication. We the…
