Appalled by the shocking poverty he saw around him in the middle of one of the world's wealthiest cities, he pondered where mankind had gone wrong and what could be done about it. Natural resources, he discovered, are the key to understanding our economy, and the failure of others to see this has led to increasing poverty and environmental degradation. In 1879, Henry George finished writing Progress and Poverty. During the 19th century, the circulation of Progress and Poverty was second only to that of the Bible. To this day, no other book on economics has been as widely distributed. who was Henry George?
