This volume in the “International library of social science” has been translated from the third Italian edition, which has been revised and amplified by the author. In the form of a series of letters, “a conversation in writing” with Mr. G. Sorei, Labriola has shown “that we must study the social conditions which were the cradle of historical materialism, if we would understand its full meaning. He has demonstrated to us that we must familiarize ourselves also with the individual growth of the founders of scientific socialism, of its prominent interpreters, its present day elaborators.”

“The career of an Indian girl and her lover, who broke away from their barbaric tribe to learn for its redemption the principles and arts of civilization. Years afterward they emerge from their training ... and go back to their native mountain ... to labor together for the civilization and Christianization of their people.... Dramatic and tragic interest is added to the narrative, which breathes a deeply religious spirit throughout with an evident purpose of stimulating a missionary interest.”—Outlook.

“It is an excellent book for Sunday-school libraries. All that it seems to lack is a prefatory note to indicate how far it is fiction and how far it is fact.”
