Indigenous Races of the Earth: Or, New Chapters of Ethnological Inquiry; Including Monographs On Special Departments...Contributed by Alfred ... Investigations, Documents, and Materials - Couverture rigide
Présentation de l'éditeur
Througu the medium of a Prospectus, we have again invited public co-operation in bringing out a second work on Anthropology ;and it is with no slight satisfaction that we now publish a larger list of Subscribers than even that received for Types of Mankind. Such testimonials of the interest taken by our fellow-citizens in scientiflc researches, are regarded by ourselves, as they will doubtless be by others both at home and abroad, as the best evidence of the love of knowledge developed in the United States through our educational institutions. Under this conviction, we have endeavored to augment the value of Indigenous Races of the Earth, by sparing neither exertion nor outlay to make the book itself worthy of the patronage bestowed upon it. Whether in the number of tlie wood-cuts and the lithographic plates, or as regards the amount of letter-press, it will be found, by those who may choo.se to compare the promises made in our Prospectus with their fulfilment in the present volume, that we have really given much more than could have been anticipated in a book the co.st of which, to the American Subscriber, is only Five Dollars per copy.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
