================= HES POSTING ================= Although best known for his monumental WAR AND PEACE, Tolstoy demonstrated his economic knowledge in a small volume entitled SOCIAL EVILS AND THEIR REMEDY, Methuen & Co., Ltd, London, 2nd ed, 1917. Tolstoy was particularly concerned with the "land question." This led him to Henry George's analysis in PROGRESS AND POVERTY, 1879. His admiration for George was expressed in the following quotation; ..."But the most just and practicable scheme is, in my opinion, that of Henry George, known as the Single-Tax System."
