Conclusion; Suggestions for Further Reading; Index. SYNOPSIS: HOW MAN LIVED . . . A HALF A MILLION YEARS AGO In this intriguing study a distinguished scholar reconstructs the world of primitive man with the probing skill and suspense of a master detective. Utilizing recent archaeological discoveries, the author's inquiry into the dawn of time uncovers some puzzling and fascinating facts: he tells why man and ape diverged; how man adapted to an arctic climate; why America was unpeopled before the last ice age; why painting first appeared in southwest Europe. He shows exactly how plants, animals, land formations, and climates were the crucial forces in the development of Neolithic and Mesolithic cultures. Here is a unique picture of human society in a time when man was subject to, rather than ruler of, his total environment. - and - Man's conquest of his environment is a recent achievement; his past history has been dictated almost entirely by the conditions of his surroundings. He has had to survive ice ages and encroaching deserts; earthquake, volcano, wild beast, and hostile terrain. This absorbing book examines man's environment from the dawn of the race and shows how the ancient human communities developed their various cultures depending upon the environment in which they lived. I. W. Cornwall reconstructs the primitive world with its radically different land forms, river systems, forestation, and climate. He emphasizes the importance of land bridges; relates the discovery of irrigation and fertilization, traces the patterns of prehistoric trade and the birth of industry with the use of gold, copper, silver, and iron. He details the detection methods employed by archaeologists: how pollen-analysis has helped reveal the environment of Mesolithic man; how tree rings can document the climatic patterns of thousands of years ago. His provocative survey of an ancient world and the men who lived in it is beautifully illuminated by unusual diagrams, drawings, and maps. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. M. Maitland Howard (illustrator).
