With the help of Friedrich Engels, German philosopher and revolutionary Karl Marx wrote The Communist Manifesto (1848) and Das Kapital (1867-1894), works, which explain historical development in terms of the interaction of contradictory economic forces, form many regimes, and profoundly influenced the social sciences.
German social theorist Friedrich Engels collaborated with Karl Marx on The Communist Manifesto in 1848 and on numerous other works.

This is a hard book to find, and difficult to read. It literally is just Marx's notes; some of it is quotations from the authors Marx is reading, some of it is lists. The language switches between English, German and ancient Greek... as well as terms in Seneca and Aztec.
Krader's commentary is helpful in making sense of it.
For those who are up to the challenge, this can give a lot of insight into Marx's thinking on cultural evolution as well as his concept of a stateless communist utopia. It's clear how Lewis Henry Morgan's historical materialist determinism had such influence on Marx and Engels.
