Communist Manifesto: Socialist Landmark. A New Appreciation written for the Labour Party by Harold J. Laski together with the original text and prefaces.
An official publication of the Labour Party issued to mark the centenary of the Communist Manifesto, with a substantial 93-page historical introduction by the political theorist Harold Laski. The text of the Manifesto reproduced is that of the 1888 Authorised English translation, retaining the various prefaces and Engels’s explanatory footnotes.
The book was published when Britain was still experiencing post-War paper rationing and the dust jackets were printed on the backs of surplus military maps, with the copy presented here showing part of the South China Sea.
