The Aryan Race : Its Origins and Its Achievements

By: Charles Morris

Originally published in 1888, this book is a beautifully-written cultural history of the Indo-European peoples. The author, a classical scholar, admitted early in the book that there was no "Aryan race" per se, but only a broad family of Indo-European language speakers who had a common origin at some distant point in the past. As a result, this engrossing book covers all Indo-European speakers from Ireland through to Afghanistan, and everyone in-between. It includes an overview of the development of ancient Indo-European households, farming arrangements, legal systems, culture, religion, language and political development. Read of the tales from the Rig-Vedas, their similarity to the Greek and Roman myths, and the parallels with the Norse Edda and even Cchulainn in Ireland. A treasure-trove of facts, myths and storytelling, ending with a prognosis of future racial development. Written in a time of unparalleled European supremacy over the world, the author's predictions have been completely reversed, but even in the confidence of his claims, is a lesson well worth learning: the futility of "white supremacy" and the understanding that the only path to racial preservation lies in separation, not rule over other races.
