Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Trans Atlantic Historical Solidarity: Lectures Delivered Before the University of Oxford in Easter and Trinity Terms 1913 ´There is apparently much truth in the belief that the wonderful progress of the United States, as well as the character of the people, are the results of natural selection; for the more energetic, restless, and courageous men from all parts of Europe have emigrated during the last ten or twelve generations to that great country, and have there succeeded best. Looking to the distant future, I do not think that the Rev. Mr. Zincke takes an exaggerated view when he says: "All other series of events - as that which resulted in the culture of mind in Greece, and that which resulted in the empire of Rome - only appear to have purpose and value when viewed in connexion with, or rather as subsidiary to... the great stream of Anglo-Saxon emigration to the west."´ - Darwin, The Descent of Man, Chapter V.
