It is a pleasure to write a review of this book (by the way, this will be a very unorthodox book review, see below). Full disclosure here: Nick Sanchez is an old and dear friend, and a former colleague of mine when we overlapped, for six years, 1991-1997, as professors of economics at Holy Cross College. One of my own contributions to student development is that I have co authored numerous refereed articles in scholarly journals with members of my undergraduate classes. Well, Nick has done me one better in this regard: this entire book is co-authored with two of his undergraduate students, Christopher Kopp and Francis Sanzari. This must surely be a rarity in publishing. Indeed, I know of no other case where a professor has co authored a full length book with undergraduates. I really regard this as a stupendous accomplishment. My own articles with students take up anywhere from 10 to 20 published pages; this is an entire book stretching on for 224 pages. These student co authors of his must be very exceptional young men. As to the book itself, it will be a welcome one for Austro-libertarians, even though Sanchez is not himself a member of the praxeological school of economics. First and foremost in this regard is his brilliant Keynesian bashing. Full stop. I am now no longer continuing to write a review of this book. True confession here: I wrote the previous sentence before I saw any Keynesian bashing in the book. At this point I started to look for some; I found very little. That is one of the reasons I stopped writing the review. In my defense, I am now unburdening my soul. Yes, sometimes, as in this case, I write before I know what I'm talking about. But, that was only a first draft. My critics may charge me with doing this in publications, too. However, as far as I am concerned, I really do try to clean up matters of this sort before going into print. So, as I say, I am now leaving off writing this book review. Instead, gentle reader, I am now directly addressing you. Consider this a side note, off the topic of the book review, at least for the moment. I got this far in the book review, and I just couldn't continue. Hey, I told you that this would be an unorthodox book review! At this point, I wrote a letter to the main author of this book, Prof. Nick Sanchez. Here is that letter (a hint to those who might become
