H. L. Mencken praised Nock's biography as "the work of a subtle and highly dexterous craftsman" which cleared "off the vast mountain of doctrinaire rubbish that has risen above Jefferson's bones and also provides a clear and comprehensive account of the Jeffersonian system", and the "essence of it is that Jefferson divided all mankind into two classes, the producers and the exploiters, and he was for the former first, last and all the time." Mencken also thought the book to be accurate, shrewd, well-ordered and charming.

Nock went on to be an outspoken opponent of the New Deal and served as a fundamental inspiration for the modern libertarian and conservative movements, cited as an influence by William F. Buckley, Jr.  He was one of the first Americans to self-identify as "libertarian".  (Source: Wikipedia)
