ENGELS TO JOHANN HEINRICH WILHELM DIETZ

IN STUTTGART

London, 5 May 1892

Dear Mr Dietz,

In response to your favour of 28 April an unbound copy of the Condition of the Working-Class in England went off to you on the 2nd inst. by registered mail, done up in a strong wrapper; I trust you have received it.

From what you say, it is not clear how much of a free hand Wigand has given you as regards publication in the Internationale Bibliothek 469 —whether for one edition of a stipulated size or for as many, over as long a period, as you and I may agree. To judge by your afore-mentioned letter, the latter would appear to be the case. I would be much obliged if you could let me have further details; in matters of business it is important for me to know what my position is.

Cordial regards,

Yours,

F. Engels
