Barker, Charles Albro : Henry George

Oxford Univ. Press, New York, 1955

Frontis. DJ edgeworn, chipped at bottom edge of rear panel Henry George (1839-1897) , an American social reformer, originated the single tax. The basic principle of this plan was that land is a free gift of nature; that all men have an equal right to use the land; and that it is unfair for a few to acquire great wealth by holding land that increases in value. George proposed to make this unearned increment (increase in value) the source of all taxation. His theories were first published in 1871 in a pamphlet called Our Land and Land Policy. He stated his theory more completely in Progress and Poverty (1879), Very Good in Good DJ, Thick 8vo
