It's not his own book, but it sounds good and he highly praises it

Although many readers will be able to name at least several important titles on the Depression and the New Deal, I cannot insist strongly enough that there is no book quite like this one. I am not aware of any other book on this subject that both carries the story from the 1920s through World War II and is economically sound throughout. Murray Rothbard's America's Great Depression, still indispensable, covers only through 1932; and books critical of the New Deal typically adopt, probably thoughtlessly, the Chicago position on the Fed.

Of course he is pimping Rothbard's book lol.

I love the Politically Incorrect series, and I love reading about how wrong the New Deal was.

I'll have to add this to my booklist.

That's not the book this article is about - actually he's saying Rothbard's book is insufficient b/c it doesn't cover events past 1932. Didn't click the link?
