О книге

Excerpt from History of Civilization IV, Vol. 4

We are now at the end of the line of investigation promised for this series. Let us look over the ground whence we came. We have been Considering the growth of man in culture. Our first volume is devoted to the consideration of the prehistoric period of man"s life on the globe. This period, which is widely different in the various nations of the world, covers by far the largest portion of man"s life Aside from gathering information of a most interesting character on the antiquities of our own country, we wish to establish the general proposition that man"s life on the globe dates from a most profound antiquity, going back indeed to a previous geological age; and we wished to show that man has lived a life of progress.

The second volume we divided into two parts. We discussed the divisions of men into races, the basis of classification, the most probable place of man"s first appearance, and the condition of primitive man in culture. We aimed to trace out the origin of various social and governmental institutions. Not resting satisfied with the general statements that tribal society preceded onr present form of government, wc sought for the origin of tribal society itself. We took up and discussed various questions relating to primitive culture and primitive religion not usually considered in historical books. Yet their consideration is most essential in a history of culture.
