Summary
Published in 1884, this is Engels's classic treatise that traces human development from the time of primitive communities to a class society aimed at the protection of private property. Based in part on Marx's notes to Lewis H. Morgan's book Ancient Society, Engels' work was deemed by Lenin as "one of the fundamental works of modern socialism."
