Ancient Types of Man
Illustrated
From discoveries of ancient human remains made within the last half-century, anthropologists are now able to place in order changes that have taken place in the posture, gait, height, and to some extent the habits of man during a period of at least a half-million years. Prof. Keith, who is one of the foremost investigators in this field, tells the story of the various forms which the body of the man has assumed, in a lucid and attractive way.
