Excerpt from The Origin and Evolution of Primitive Man: Lecture Given at the Royal Societies Club, St. James Street, February 1912
So many of my friends have requested a copy of the lecture I delivered recently at the Royal Societies Club, on the "Origin and Evolution of Primitive Man," that I have decided to publish it.
The slight additions made will render it more complete and (I trust) more interesting to my readers.
The matter is practically all original, and has not, hitherto, been brought to the notice of the Public; but the evidence in favour of my contentions is critically correct.
I am greatly indebted to my friend, Mr Trevor Haddon, R.B.A., for the skill, kindness and patience he has displayed over the drawings of the types of men which he has reconstructed from my directions.
The subject of the lecture now published constitutes a chapter in "The Origin and Evolution of the Human Race" - the book I am now compiling but cannot hope to complete before another two years.
