A meticulously researched political biography, Frederick Engels: A Biography chronicles the life and legacy of one of the nineteenth century's most influential thinkers and revolutionaries. As the lifelong collaborator of Karl Marx, Engels co-authored foundational texts of socialist theory - including The Communist Manifesto - and his intellectual contributions shaped the course of modern history. The biography traces his journey from a prosperous Rhineland merchant family to becoming a radical philosopher, economist, and social theorist who argued passionately for the emancipation of the working class. Written with scholarly authority, it details his formative years in industrial Manchester, his financial support of Marx, and his independent works such as The Condition of the Working Class in England and Anti-Duhring. Published by Progress Publishers in Moscow, this edition presents a comprehensive portrait of Engels as both a man of ideas and a man of action, essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the intellectual origins of Marxist thought.
