Notes: | "This volume is intended to serve as a companion to Febvre's Geographical Introduction to History, which estimated the value of "environment" as a factor in history. The present volume considers the "racial" factor, the anthropological reality which depends on somatic characters, build, height, colour of hair and eyes, craniological and facial form, etc. This the author carefully distinguishes from such artificial entities as peoples, nations, civilizations, or language groups." "Foreword: Race and migrations," by Henri Berr. Translation of: Races et l'histoire: introduction ethnologique à l'histoire.
