Discourse on the Extinction of Primitive Races, 1800-1930
Free delivery. Nothing extra to pay at checkout.
Patrick Brantlinger here examines the commonly held nineteenth-century view that all "primitive" or "savage" races around the world were doomed sooner or later to extinction. Warlike propensities and presumed cannibalism were regarded as simultaneously noble and suicidal, accelerants of the downfall of other races after contact with white civilization.
