- How long is Why Not Try Freedom?

- Is Why Not Try Freedom in the public domain?
- Believed so. US works published between 1932 and 1963 kept copyright past 28 years only if someone filed a renewal, and no renewal for this work was found in the Catalog of Copyright Entries. That is a search result rather than a legal opinion: a renewal filed under a shortened title or a different claimant would not have been found. Some copies carry a rights notice, which records the original claim and does not extend a term that lapsed.
- Who wrote Why Not Try Freedom?
- Leonard E. Read (1898–1983) was an American founder and president of the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE), and had a lifelong devotion to educating people about freedom in down-to-earth ways that would stick with them. This archive holds 39 of Read's works.
