DCP-LETT-7796

From:
Charles Robert Darwin
To:
Vladimir Onufrievich Kovalevsky (Владимир Онуфриевич Ковалевский)
Date:
2 June [1871]
Source of text:
Institut Mittag-Leffler
Summary:

Thanks VOK for sending F. Körte’s book [Die Streich-, Zug- oder Wander-Heuschrecke (1828)]. The passage CD wrote about [see 7735] must occur in the second edition. If VOK ever comes upon the 1829 edition, it would be of use to him.

Agrees that the Versailles army has been savagely brutal [in siege of Paris], but thinks the "Communists [Communards] have made themselves everlastingly infamous".
