Translations of Libertarian Texts

Many libertarian texts are still unavailable to non-English speakers. Some translations are available. These translations are essential for spreading knowledge and love of liberty worldwide because they have a chance to reach much larger audiences, as well as audiences with an already receptive predisposition to the ideas of markets and liberty.
