The Lineage of Lichfield

The Lineage of Lichfield: An Essay in Eugenics is a book written by James Branch Cabell and published in 1922. The book is a study of the lineage of the Lichfield family, tracing their ancestry and analyzing their genetic traits. The author uses the study of eugenics to explore the idea that certain traits and characteristics are inherited and can be passed down through generations. Cabell's work is a reflection of the eugenics movement that was popular in the early 20th century, which aimed to improve the human race through selective breeding. The book is a fascinating exploration of the connections between genetics, family history, and social status, and provides insight into the attitudes and beliefs of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
