The only book of reminiscences of Marx available to date was published in Moscow and was heavily biased. David McLellan, the leading Marx scholar of our day, has put the records straight with his wide ranging, balanced selection of reminiscences of those who knew Marx, several appearing here in English for the first time.
David McLellan includes in his collection passages by Jenny and Eleanor Marx, by Marx's avowed enemy Bakunin, by his friend Liebknecht; and by the only two journalists ever granted an interview by Marx.
Each contribution has a short commentary to set it in its context and the text is preceded by an introductory essay and followed by an extensive biographical index. A chronological table puts the whole collection in perspective, completing this fascinating book which provides as near a total picture of Marx the man as we can now hope for.
