I need help.

Can someone recomend a good biography for both Marx or/and Bakunin?

But please, consider this: no apologetics, ideologization, or bourgeois pathetics!

Try "Karl Marx: Man and Fighter" by Boris Nicolaievsky.

Karl Marx by Francis Wheen is a pretty good biography in my opinion.

Although Wheen is a "bourgeois liberal", the biography is so good that even one of our resident Anarchists who considers Marx a "tyrannical bureaucrat" spoke highly of it when I posted about it....

As for Bakunin, I have no idea, though I would personally like a good recommendation for a biography on him.
