The Forgotten Man: And Other Essays is a collection of essays written by American economist and sociologist William Graham Sumner in 1919. The book explores the concept of the forgotten man - the hardworking, tax-paying citizen who is often overlooked by politicians and policymakers in favor of special interest groups. Sumner argues that government intervention in the economy and society often harms the forgotten man, and that laissez-faire capitalism is the best system for promoting individual freedom and prosperity. The essays cover a range of topics, including the role of government in education, the dangers of socialism, and the importance of individual responsibility. Sumner's ideas were controversial at the time of publication, but have since become influential in conservative and libertarian circles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
