The Passing Of The Great Race

The Passing Of The Great Race
The Passing of the Great Race, (Or, The Racial Basis of European History) by American eugenicist, lawyer, and amateur anthropologist Madison Grant, was originally published in 1916. The work looks at the racial history of the world, drawing on scientific theories of genetics and Darwinian evolution, including the works of prior eugenicists and racialist authors, in order create a historical synthesis. Furthermore, Grant proposes a theory of Nordic superiority and argues in favour of strong eugenics program.
