The Teeming Millions of the East: Being a Popular Account of the Inhabitants of Asia; The History of Existing and Extinct Nations, Their Ethnology, Manners, and Customs (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Teeming Millions of the East: Being a Popular Account of the Inhabitants of Asia; The History of Existing and Extinct Nations, Their Ethnology, Manners, and Customs
Beyond all other continents, Asia is full of varied interest to the inquiring and reflective mind. By its vast extent, its diversity of climates and physical features, its variety of population, its scattered tribes, its mighty empires and their wonderful history, its strange superstitions, its profound moral teachers, and its powerful religions, the Orient continent appeals in succession or in combination to the most far-reaching of our faculties and sympathies. Its historic records go back farther than those of any continent, unless perhaps Egyptian records may claim something like equality in this respect, and Egypt may almost be regarded as an annex of Asia. The prehistoric remains of Asia are as yet little known, but from what we already know of them early man in Asia passed through the same stages of using rough and polished stone implements for long ages as in Europe; and it may be inferred from the great age of historic records in Asia that the first men lived in Asia at an earlier period even than in Europe.
