<p>Charles Dana, managing editor of the New York Tribune, requested articles on the German Revolution from Karl Marx. Since Marx was busy with economic studies and not yet fluent in English, Friedrich Engels, his close friend, wrote the articles in Manchester and sent them to Marx in London for final editing and dispatch. These articles were published under Marx's name, though Engels was the main author. Their collaboration on Tribune articles continued until 1862, with Engels frequently contributing on political and military topics.</p>

<p>Karl Marx, as a German exile living in London, makes his first appearance in print with a series called “Revolution and Counter-Revolution,” in the New York Tribune. Over the next decade, Marx will write a series of news articles that appear in the newspaper about European events and affairs.&nbsp;</p>
