Capitalism and Freedom

Milton Friedman · University of Chicago Press (Chicago) · 1962

Census claim confirmed. This is a US-only first with no competing UK or original-language precedence: the book was written in English and first published by the University of Chicago Press in 1962. There is no earlier or simultaneous British edition to complicate priority, so the 1962 Chicago printing in jacket is the single collected first.
