The Dying of a Great Race
Book •
'The Passing of the Great Race' by Madison Grant is a controversial book advocating for racial purity and eugenics.
Published in 1916, it warned about the decline of the Nordic race due to immigration and racial mixing.
Grant divided Europeans into three races: Nordic, Alpine, and Mediterranean, asserting the superiority of the Nordic race.
He argued that the United States should implement strict immigration policies to preserve its Nordic character.
The book influenced immigration laws in the 1920s and was admired by figures like Adolf Hitler.
It remains a significant, though discredited, work in the history of scientific racism.
