The Passing of the Great Race; or, The Racial Basis of European History

xxi, 245 pp. 8vo. Three charts (two fold-outs) in text, four color fold-out maps following text tracing distribution of various racial groups throughout Europe. An infamous racist/eugenicist text by the American lawyer, conservationist, zoologist, and anthropologist, who contributed to immigration restriction and anti-miscegenation laws in the United States. Despite his awful views on human equality, Grant helped to rescue the American bison from extinction, and to establish several national parks through his conservationist efforts. He is also credited with the development of wildlife management as a discipline.
