I saw this on freedom watch a week or so ago & I am considering purchasing it for some mormon friends I have...

Anyone read this or know if it's any good?

I just read through some of it on Amazon's preview. It seems very good. Bibliography is full of some of my favorite people :) (like Rothbard, Mises, Rand, Raimondo, Luigi Marco Bassini,... LOTS of Rothbard). The parts I read I didn't disagree with. As a Latter-day Saint, I would say it seems like this book would be an effective outreach. So go for it!

I read it and loved it! Great gift for an LDS, and lots of good libertarian philosophy for anyone else.

I've given away about 15 copies so far!

Go for it. I'm a Latter-day Saint myself and I found it to be a good source for other LDS to read. Connor's website is worth checking out and referring your LDS friends to as well. He pulls libertarian ideology and LDS theology together pretty persuasively.
