RACES AND PEOPLES. 



By DANIEL G. BRINTON, M.D. 



"The book is good, thoroughly good, and will long 

 remain the best accessible elementary ethnography 

 in our language." — The Christian Union. 



"We strongly recommend Dr. Brinton's 'Races 

 ^nd Peoples"' to both beginners and scholars. We 

 3,TG not aware of any other recent work on the 

 science of which it treats in the English language." 

 —Asiatic Quarterly. 



"His book is an excellent one, and we can heartily 

 recommend it as an introductoiy manual of ethnol- 

 ogy."— T/ie Monist. 



"A useful and really interesting work, which de- 

 serves to be widely read and studied both in Europe 

 -and America."— jBr/g/ifon (Eng.) Herald. 



"This volume is most stimulating. It is written 

 with great clearness, so that anybody can under- 

 stand, and while in some ways, perforce, superficial, 

 grasps very well the complete field of humanity." — 

 The New York Times. 



"Dr. Brinton invests his scientific illustrations and 

 measurements with, an indescribable charm of nar- 

 ration, so that 'Races and Peoples.' avowedly a rec- 

 ord of discovered facts, is in reality a strong stim- 

 ulant to the imagination." — Philadelphia Public 

 Ledger. 



" The work is indispensable to the student who re- 

 squires an intelligent guide to a course of ethno- 

 «;raphic reading." — Philadelphia Times. 



Price, postpaid, f 1.75.

"The book is oneof unusual interest and value."— 

 Inter Ocea?i. 



" Dr. Daniel G. Brinton writes as the acknowledged 

 .authority of the snhject.''''— Philadelphia Press. 



" The work will be of genuine value to all who 

 wish to know the substance of what has been found 

 ■out about the indigenous Americans."— iVature. 



"A masterly discussion, and an example of the 

 successful education of the powers of observation." 

 — Philadelphia Ledger.
