Chinese workers
Thank you for the great articles by Mary-Alice Waters on the history and contributions of Chinese workers. The book review by Jim Altenberg was excellent. (See “Driven Out: The Forgotten War Against Chinese Americans” in August 17 Militant.) These two articles have offered material that I was never aware of. The truth and factual reporting of the Militant often motivates us to study further.

Wants book recommendations
I just wanted to write and let you know how much I enjoy your paper. Could you recommend some basic political works of Marx and Engels for me to study so I can understand Marxism and socialism better?

Editor’s note—The best introductory work by Marx and Engels is the Communist Manifesto, which is available from Pathfinder. A good companion is the Pathfinder booklet Is Socialist Revolution in the U.S. Possible? by Mary-Alice Waters.
