Just Published (1968)

Notices from the May 1968 issue of the Socialist Standard

The University Presses of Chicago. Columbia and Yale have republished Engels Revolution and Counter-Revolution and Peasant War in Germany with an introduction by Leonard Krieger and the title of The German Revolutions. The paperback edition is 22s.

When he was in prison in the 1850’s the Chartist leader Ernest Jones, a close associate of Marx and Engels and advocate of political action to establish a communist society, wrote some Notes to the People 1851-8. Merlin Press have brought out a facsimile edition of these notes in two volumes. At twelve guineas the pair this is obviously meant for libraries. But it is worth knowing that they are available.
