The Passing Of The Great Race Or The Racial Basis Of European History

The Passing of the Great Race or The Racial Basis of European History is a controversial book written by Madison Grant in 1916. The book discusses the theory of eugenics and the idea that the white race, specifically those of Northern European descent, are superior to all other races. Grant argues that the decline of the white race is due to the mixing of inferior races and the failure to maintain racial purity. He also discusses the history of Europe and how the white race has been the driving force behind civilization. The book has been criticized for its promotion of racism and for its influence on Nazi ideology. Despite its controversial nature, The Passing of the Great Race is considered an important work in the history of eugenics and racial theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
