The OLL has a number of collections of particular academic and scholarly importance which are available for both purchase from our online catalog and from this website:
- The Glasgow Edition of the Works and Correspondence of Adam Smith,
7 vols. - The Glasgow Edition was originally published by Oxford
University Press in 1976 to coincide with the 200th anniversary of the
publication of Smith’s best known work The Wealth of Nations in
1776. Since then, Liberty Fund acquired the rights to publish a
paperback edition and we are now pleased to have online an electronic
version of this great collection by one of the leading figures of the
Scottish Enlightenment. Each volume is available in facsimile PDF, HTML
and in e-Book format (PDF).
- Natural Law and Enlightenment Classics - this collection
includes over 40 of the Enlightenment’s most significant works on
natural law, moral philosophy, political theory, jurisprudence, and
theology. Under the general editorship of Knud Haakonssen, this series
comprises works by Hugo Grotius, Samuel Pufendorf, Richard Cumberland,
Francis Hutcheson, George Turnbull, Jean Jacques Burlamaqui, Emmerich
de Vattel, Jean Louis De Lolme, and many others. Distinguished scholars
from all over the world have edited these volumes, providing concise
introductions to place the work in context. Each text also has
annotations, an index, and, when necessary, supplemental appendixes. As
appropriate, the series includes specially commissioned translations of
French, German, and Latin texts that have never before been published
in English.
- The Works and Correspondence of David Ricardo,
ed. Piero Sraffa with the Collaboration of M.H. Dobb (Indianapolis:
Liberty Fund, 2005), 11 vols. - This eleven-volume set was prepared
under the auspices of the Royal Economic Society by Piero
Sraffa and printed by Cambridge University Press in 1951–1973. It
contains
all of Ricardo’s published and unpublished writings, and provides great
insight into the early era of political economics by chronicling
Ricardo’s significant contributions to modern economics. The edition
has been widely acclaimed as the best example, prior to the Glasgow
edition of Adam Smith’s writings, of scholarly editing applied to the
work of an economist. It contains a general index and includes four
volumes dedicated to his personal correspondence with such economic
luminaries as Malthus, Jean-Baptiste Say, and James Mill, the father of
John Stuart Mill.
- The Intellectual Portrait Series: Conversations with Leading Defenders of Liberty
- Conversations with some of the most original thinkers of our
generation are now available on videotape from Liberty Fund’s online
catalog or in various audio only formats at this website. Liberty Fund

liberty of our times. They included Armen A. Alchian, Manuel Ayau,
Jacques Barzun, Raoul Berger, Lord Peter Thomas Bauer, Gary Becker,
