Frank Chodorov: A Libertarian's Libertarian, by Joseph R. Stromberg, 30 Nov 1999
Biographical essay on Frank Chodorov with emphasis on his foreign policy views
"Along with that whole generation of libertarians, republicans, and conservatives we call the Old Right, Chodorov was strongly committed to nonintervention. As World War II took form, he wrote many antiwar editorials in the old Freeman, a publication of the Henry George School. ... He founded his own broadsheet, analysis in 1944. In this little journal, he could truly write what he thought."
Frank Chodorov: Champion of Liberty, by Aaron Steelman, The Freeman: Ideas on Liberty, Dec 1996
Biographical essay on the 30th anniversary of Chodorov's death
"By the early 1950s, Chodorov was already well established as an individualist writer of the highest quality. In his view, the movement he had helped to preserve and shape in the 1940s was not 'conservative'; it was 'individualist.' He was disturbed by the growing influence of a system of thought he viewed as fundamentally majoritarian in nature."
Frank Chodorov, R.I.P., by Murray N. Rothbard, Left & Right: A Journal of Libertarian Thought, 1967
Biographical remembrance of Chodorov relating Rothbard's first meeting him
"For Frank was sui generis, and the vast gulf in the quality of mind and the rigor of ideas between him and the other 'rightist' intellectuals was, in a sense, embodied in that other gulf of spirit and outward form. Unflinching honesty, courage, love of the intellect and the products of the mind, these are some of the things that distinguished Frank Chodorov to the very core of his being and set him many light years above his confreres."
