The Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression by Amity Shlaes is a history book that reexamines the American Great Depression through a distinctly free-market lens. Published in 2007, it challenges the standard narrative that New Deal intervention was the main force that ended economic collapse. Instead, Shlaes argues that both Herbert Hoover and Franklin D. Roosevelt made policy choices that deepened uncertainty, discouraged investment, and extended hardship for ordinary Americans. The title refers to the worker, taxpayer, and small citizen whose interests were often overlooked in favor of large federal programs and political symbolism. Rather than presenting the 1930s as a simple story of rescue by government action, the book reconstructs the decade as a conflict over markets, state power, and economic recovery. Its purpose is both historical and interpretive: to retell the Depression in a way that invites readers to question whether government activism actually delivered the results it promised.
