NMLP P-045696 — The Communist Manifesto (Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei)

Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels · Bildungs-Gesellschaft für Arbeiter (Communist Workers' Educational Association); printed at the office of J. E. Burghard, 46 Liverpool Street, Bishopsgate, London · 1848

The German-language original (London, 1848) is the true first. The census note's framing of Samuel Moore as the 'first English translation' is wrong: the first English translation was Helen Macfarlane's, serialized in 1850 in George Julian Harney's Chartist paper The Red Republican. The first AUTHORIZED English book edition is the Samuel Moore translation, revised and annotated by Engels — William Reeves, London, 1888 — which is a separate collectible, neither the first English appearance nor the true first of the work.
