More about the book

Focusing on biodiversity and its historical implications, Madison Grant explores the racial and ethnic dynamics of European settlement in North America. He argues that the predominance of Northwestern Europeans, particularly English and Ulster Scots, shaped the nation's prosperity and cultural identity. Grant examines the intersection of human diversity with historical narratives and government policy, offering a perspective on how these factors contributed to the cohesion and stability of the United States during his time. The book is illustrated with maps, enhancing its historical context.
