Synopsis

Excerpt from The Origin of Civilisation and the Primitive Condition of Man: Mental and Social Condition of Savages

Nor must I omit to mention Lord Kames' 'his tory of Man,' and Montesquieu's Esprit des Lois,' both of them works of great interest, although written at a time when our knowledge of savage races was even more imperfect than it is now.
