The Passing of the Great Race or The Racial Basis of European History is a controversial book written by Madison Grant. Published in 1916, it explores the idea of racial purity and the superiority of the Nordic race. The book argues that the Nordic race, which includes Germans, Scandinavians, and Anglo-Saxons, is the most advanced and superior race in the world. Grant also claims that the decline of civilizations is due to the mixing of races and the dilution of Nordic blood. He argues that the United States should restrict immigration to only those of Nordic descent to maintain the purity of the race. The book was widely read and influential in its time, but its racist and eugenicist views have been widely criticized in modern times.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
