Madison Grant's The Passing of the Great Race, or, The Racial Basis of European History remains a controversial and influential work in the fields of racial history and ethnology. Published in the early 20th century, Grant presents his theories concerning the Nordic race and its purported role in European history. The book explores concepts of racial purity and advocates for eugenics.

Categorized under Social Sciences, this historical text offers a glimpse into the development of racial ideologies. Grant's theories significantly impacted discussions surrounding immigration and race relations, making it a crucial, albeit unsettling, document for understanding the history of these ideas. It is a key resource for those studying the history of European ethnology and the social and cultural factors that shaped early 20th-century thought. This edition meticulously preserves the original text for scholarly study and historical context.
