The passing of the great race; or, The racial basis of European history

Description

Madison Grant’s The Passing of the Great Race is one of the most influential and controversial works of racial theory ever written. First published in 1916, it argues that the European elite is being diluted by immigration and that the decline of these founding lineages threatens Western civilization. Grant was a prominent member of the Madison Grant Study Group and his ideas shaped American immigration policy for decades, including the Johnson-Reed Act of 1924.\n\nThis work is a foundational text in the history of racial science and American political thought. Scholars of American history, immigration law, and the intellectual history of the early 20th century study Grant's writing to understand how racial theories influenced public policy and shaped the American identity. Eread offers this classic in EPUB format, preserving the original text for modern study and historical analysis.
