Title: The Defence of Democracy.
Description: London: Jonathan Cape, 1939. 1st edition. "Asserting that communism, just as much as fascism, is incompatible with democracy, he[Murry] conducts a critical examination of the theories of Karl Marx, and although he evidently finds Marx worthy of the respect due to 'a Hebrew prophet' imbued with what amounts to a religious idea of regeneration, he shows that Marx's conception of the proletariat cannot be applied to England." Pp.315, slight toning to endpapers, spotting to closed page edges. Blue cloth, dustwrapper toned with edge tears and small chipped losses. G+/G-.
