Keynes's review of Mises was published in 1914. It was much later that
Keynes wrote in his Treatise on Money (1930, Vol 1, p. 199n2) that:
"in German I can clearly understand what I already know, so that new ideas
are apt to be veiled from me by the difficulties of the language"
Many Austrians have cited this; See, e.g., Rothbard's essay on "Keynes, the
Man" in Skousen, ed., Dissent on Keynes, 1992.
