From text, at p.392: "..we are indebted to the German mind for this most stupendous and at the same time most practical dream in human history. It is also wonderful that Germany, which gave us the Reformation, and modern Judaism, and the best of modern science, and the greatest of the pessimistic philosophers, has now given Carl Marx and Socialism to the world." - From jacket: "In the form of new fiction a fascinating narrative beginning in the era before the Civil War, and coming down to the present day. The style is virile, dramatic, poetic, realistic, the greatest book of its kind since 'Vanity Fair.' It is, in fact, a modern 'Satires of Juvenal' in prose."
