I watched the third part of the excellent BBC series,
The Secret History of our Streets, last night. It traced the history of the Caledonian Road in North London, which, as one long-term resident put it, everyone thinks of as a “shit-hole” (I certainly always have). Then, in the early hours of this morning, I finished reading one of the works which kick-started the modern Libertarian movement,
The Ghost of the Machine, by the Canadian-American journalist and novelist, Isabel Paterson, published in 1943.
