About This Book

Classic anthropological field guide, first published in 1874, intended to "stimulate accurate observation and the recording of information thus obtained by anyone in contact with peoples and cultures hitherto imperfectly described".

It was an attempt by academic anthropologists to provide colonial bureaucrats, soldiers, and missionaries with some scientific procedure to guide their observations of the peoples they governed, disciplined, or converted.
