Items related to A Book of the Beginnings ( 2 volume set)
Gerald Massey's work has become essential for readers seeking a balanced understanding of human origins, religious thought and belief, and the role of Africa in world history. Massey, born in England (1828-1907), was at once a poet, Shakespearean scholar, mythographer and radical Egyptologist, who maintained that Africa was the source for "the greatest civilization in the world." According to Massey, all evidence cries aloud its proclamation that Africa was the birthplace of the nonarticulate and Egypt the mouthpiece of articulate man.
A Book of Beginnings, first published in 1881 in a limited edition, introduced the public to the author's extensive research that transcended conventional opinions of race supremacy.
