The Daughters of Karl Marx

This spring an extremely interesting volume, The Daughters of Karl Marx: Family Correspondence 1866-1898, will be published in New York. By the kind permission of the publisher, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, we print below several letters (written in English, like much of this correspondence) by Marx’s daughters. The editorial commentary and notes are taken from the book. We have added a few bracketed items of information. — Eds.
