Review essay: “Well grubbed, old mole!”: On Karl Marx in America by Andrew Hartman

By Gregory Jones-Katz

With Karl Marx in America[i], Andrew Hartman burrows and raises molehills, creating extensive networks of historical and political ideas for our intellectual nourishment. Throughout its hefty 500 pages and nine chapters, Hartman adroitly historicizes a wide range of American readers’ uses of Marx since the mid-nineteenth century.
