Geoists in History was a prominent series in our 119 year old Progress Magazine. Geoist is an alternative term for Georgist. In his long running contribution, Karl William’s has documented biographical information of notable figures who were proponents of Georgism, or shared who espoused Georgist values despite having no direct knowledge of Henry George’s work.
