Similarly Bushmen and Hottentots once covered the African savannah; Pygmies were numerous in the rain forests; Caucasoid Arabs entered Africa in the last two thousand years.

Hardback. 236 photos. 112 pp. Volume 2 of An Atlas of Mankind. In this generously illustrated history of ancient Greece and Rome, author R. Peterson traces the life history of these two great civilizations and the racial changes brought about by the importation of slaves and other immigrants. The text is dramatically illustrated by original hermae, busts and statues, which reveal the changing racial character over the centuries due to foreign conquests, interbreeding, and inmigration, lending confirmation to the theory that the collapse of Greek and Roman civilization was linked to changes in the genetic character of the original Greek and Roman peoples. Softback. 38 Illustrations. 112 pp. Volume 3 of An Atlas of Mankind. This magnificent book illustrates the traditional physical type of the populations of the diverse countries of Europe. Complete with a comprehensive index of countries. Contents include: documentation of areas where the population is changing due to a decline in the indigenous European population and heavy non-European immigration. 110 illustrations, also ethnic maps. 128pp.
