This Liberty Matters series from The Online Library of Liberty looks at the unique challenges that women face during times of war. No, I was not a contributor, but Christy Horpedahl thought I might find it interesting. She was correct.

Roughly a year ago (Jun 7, 2024), the great libertarian philosopher and thinker David Boaz ascended from this mortal coil. Someone suggested to Liberty Fund that there should be an essay series honoring him. They agreed, planning the tribute for the anniversary of his passing.
