These six lectures on the Austrian School of economics were going to be the basis of the third volume of Rothbard’s History of Thought. Thomas Topp very helpfully sent us complete transcripts of the lectures, which allows you to listen and read at the same time! See the PDF link below the individual file.

Fantastic; thank you!
BTW, the link to the file on Hayek (the 6th lecture) seems broken.
We were all hoping that the content of what Murray Rothbard was working on at the time of his death would eventually begin to become available. His legacy continues!
Woo Hoo!
So, has anyone started a project yet to transcribe Rothbard’s handwritten 5th Volume of “Conceived in Liberty”?
If so, please let me know, as I will gladly volunteer some time to the effort. If not… I would consider making a donation to help fund imaging of the pages (or maybe take next year’s vacation in Auburn?).
Great job! Thank you
Thanks much for these PDFs. Where can we submit corrigenda? E.g., there’s an obvious mistake in Lecture #6, page 2, paragraph 4, “does mean” should be “doesn’t mean”.
Many thanks for this hard work!
I have some minor corrections especially for part 3. I put them here for the record.
Bernulli -> Bernouilli
Kantalon -> Richard Cantillon
Turgo -> Anne Robert Jacques Turgot, baron de l’Aulne
Condullac -> Étienne Bonnot de Condillac
Mabli -> Gabriel Bonnot de Mably
Margret de Baden is a woman (if the name margret is correct)
Puffendorf -> Samuel Pufendorf
Bombaverk -> Eugen Böhm von Bawerk (Böhm-Bawerk)
Minger -> Carl Menger
Tennay – Francois Quesnay
and some for part 1:
Pierre de Jean-Olivie -> Pierre Jean Olivi, aka Pierre Déjean, aka Peter Olivi (???)
Tourgal -> Anne Robert Jacques Turgot, baron de l’Aulne (???)
Jean Beckler -> Jean Baechler
but who is “Kauter”?
It’d be great if these transcripts were on a wiki somewhere so we could make some of these fixes, it’s frustrating trying to work out who’s who!
