Excerpt from Social History of the Races of Mankind: Third Division, Aoneo-Maranonians There are numerous men of scientific attainments, who cannot shake off the trammels of education, and being deficient in moral courage, they dare not contradict the accepted, conventional, superstitious ideas and opinions. They take the Bible, which they consider as a divine revelation, as their text-book, and they insist that all mankind are the direct descendants of a legendary first pair, generally known as Adam and Eve, both having been created or produced by a kind of divine selection in a so-called paradise situated somewhere in Asia. These men obtain the elements of their geological knowledge from the Mosaic account of creation and the flood they base their ethnology upon the legendary genealogy of Genesis their philology on the legend of the Tower of Babel; and they derive their principles of astronomy from the astounding miracle of Joshua who made the sun and moon stand still. Men in their primitive state, when they knew nothing of ocean navigation when the surface of the globe was only scantily peopled men were no more voluntarily migratory than the animals that sur rounded them. They naturally but slowly spread by excessive multi plication but they were always attached to the land of their birth.

Excerpt from Social History of the Races of Mankind: Fifth Division, Aramaeans Why write a preface which no one will read, especially as we have no excuses to make for writing the work of which we present the first volume to the public; and yet it is necessary to make a few explanatory remarks to convince the reader that no sacrifice of time and labour has been spared to make the work as complete as possible. Ten years of constant appli cation have thus far been devoted to the collection of materials, and this time has been passed in the best libraries of Europe and America, where the most authentic authors who have written in any of the languages of the civilised world have been examined, either in the original or in translations. The authorities have been thoroughly studied; the facts have been selected with critical discernment, and no doubtful or incredible statements are admitted in the text unless controverted in a footnote. As each volume is entirely independent of all the others, and is perfect and complete in itself, we have selected the Aramaeans as the first volume for publication; for as the Semitic nations and tribes, whose social history it describes, have already attained a high degree of civilisation, the work will present a high interest not only to scientific men but to the general reader; while it furnishes valuable information as regards the Semitic question which has recently been raised in Hungary and Germany.

Excerpt from Social History of the Races of Mankind: Fifth Division, Aramaeans The primeval man did not spring from a single stock or from one ancestral type. He arose under varying conditions in different countries and at different geological periods. The initiat'ory forces of nature which caused his primitive development existed in the same degree in all the isothermal regions of the earth, and wherever the favourable circumstances were capable of producing and fostering into maturity the human animal, there he appeared, everywhere adapting himself, in constitution and growth, to, the local variations of the' environment. He was not [even developed anywhere by a single pair, but by thousands of pairs at the same time, for it is by long continued organic interaction, through sexual and natural selection, that the perfect typical form of the human species could have been developed. The central tropical regions of the earth were the original birthplace of primeval man; here, where-forest trees of spontaneous growth produce delicious fruits, where the swamps and' marshes abound in nutritious grains and succulent roots, where apes and monkeys, whom he approached nearest in type, have their home; where the climatic conditions are most favourable to a naked creature, dependent for the means of self - preservation and self-defence on its own innate energy with which it is endowed by nature.

Excerpt from The Relations of the Advanced and the Backward Races of Mankind In the paeans that were chanted when at the opening of a new century the achievements of the century preceding were reviewed, it was chiefly the progress of the physical sciences, the enlargement of knowledge, and the control obtained over the forces of nature that filled our thoughts. But the exploration of the area, with the ascertainment of the character and resources; both actual and potential, of the globe we inhabit, was a scarcely less notable result of the nineteenth century. In one aspect it was even more remarkable, because it represented the all but final closing of one great chapter of history, the completion of one great task which Man had to do. Scientific knowledge will, we may hope, go on increasing steadily and rapidly. But the exploration of this earth is now all but finished. Civilized man knows his home in a sense in which he never knew it before. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Races of Mankind, Vol. 3: Being a Popular Description of the Characteristics, Manners and Customs of the Principal Varieties of the Human Family; With Upwards of One Hundred and Thirty Illustrations Etiquette. - Among the Weeze the mode of saluting a chief is for his inferiors to blow themselves and clap their hands twice, while the women, in addition, salute by making a curtsey. The petty chief receives the same obeisance, the bowing and curtseying, however, being in their case omitted. When two women meet, and one is of inferior rank to the other, the inferior drops on one knee and bends her head. The superior then lays her hands on the inferior's shoulders, and after remaining in this posture for some time, and whispering some words in an undertone; they then - the demands of a rigid etiquette having been satisfied stand together, and converse freely. When a Watusi, among whom Captain Grant met the dusky beauty (vol. Ii., p. Meets a friend, he holds out the knobbed end of a five-foot stick, which he always carries. This done, no further courtesy is necessary, and they pass on, or talk together, as the case may be. The Weeze look upon the Watusi with profound respect, and when the former meets a member of the latter tribe he presses the palms of his hands together, while the W atusi returns the compliment by gently clasping them within his own, muttering at the same time some words, which were unintelligible to Captain Grant. This method of saluta tion is almost the exact equivalent of the old Norman mode of receiving the submission of a vassal, putting his hands within his and calling him lord. A Weeze woman is not less polite to the Watusi man. If she meet a member of the more honourable tribe, instantly her arms fall prone by her side, while the Watusi on his part presses them for a little time with his hands, just below the shoulders. Among the Wagonda, if a superior has occasion to present anything to an inferior, he pats and rubs it with his hands, finally stroking each check with it, the object of this elaborate ceremony being to stave off witchcraft and the mischief of the evil eye from the donor. Among the tribe just named, the etiquette in regard to the dress of each rank is even stricter than was enacted by the sumptuary laws prevailing in reference to this in England during the middle ages. The least infringement of the laws in regard to dress. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Aryan Race: Its Origins and Its Achievements Any attempt, indeed, to tell the story of the Aryan race, even in outline, during the recent age of mankind would be equivalent to an attempt to write the history of civilization, - which is far from our purpose. But in the comparison of the intellectual conditions and products of the several races of mankind, and in the consideration of the evolution of human institutions and lines of thought and action, we have a field of research which is by no means exhausted, and with which the general world of readers is very little con versant. Our work will therefore be found to be largely comparative in treatment, the characteristics and conditions of the other leading races of mankind being considered, and contrasted with those of the Aryan, with the purpose not only of clearly showing the general superiority of the latter, but also of point ing out the natural steps of evolution through which it emerged from original savagery and attained to its present intellectual supremacy and advanced stage of enlightenment.
