The new edition of Road to Serfdom that we are now carrying is called the “definitive edition” because it includes referee reports on the book, and other materials. Here is a report on the pre-publication manuscript from Frank Knight (1943): “In sum, the book is an able piece of work, but limited in scope and somewhat one-sided in treatment. I doubt whether it would have a very wide market in this country, or would change the position of many readers.”
