Auf den Spuren von Karl Marx und Friedrich Engels

The travel guide leads to the most important stations in the lives of the two great thinkers and revolutionaries. The journey leads from their birthplaces Trier and Wuppertal through their time in Berlin, Cologne, Paris, Brussels and Manchester to London. In addition, more places have been described in compact form.

Detailed maps and extensively described tours (including historical classification and illustrations of the sights) help you search for traces: Where did Marx and Engels grow up and who shaped them? Where did the "Communist Manifesto" and "Das Kapital" come from? What meeting places did the labor movement have in its time? In which streets were Marx rioting and Engels on the barricades? Which museums, statues and memorial plaques do they still have today?

Michael Driever followed on the heels of the revolutionaries and conducted research in Germany, France, Belgium and England. This, among other things, brought to light a crazy pub crawl by Marx, which can be relived with the help of this book.
