Free market capitalism and Karl Marx
The on-line bookseller Abe Books recently published their list of the most expensive books sold through their site during 2011. It is quite an interesting and esoteric list. Here are their two most expensive book sales from last year:
“Das Kapital, Kritik der politischen Oekonomie by Karl Marx - $51, 739 The first edition (in three volumes) with the first published in 1867 by Otto Meissner.”
and
“To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee - $25,000 First edition of Lee’s first and only, Pulitzer Prize-winning, novel; signed “with best wishes Harper Lee.”
