Publisher's Synopsis
The Ethnology Of The British Colonies And Dependencies is a book written by Robert Gordon Latham that provides a comprehensive overview of the various ethnic groups and cultures found in the British colonies and dependencies during the mid-19th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a particular region or colony, including India, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada.Latham draws on a wide range of sources, including his own observations and experiences as a physician and anthropologist, as well as historical and ethnographic accounts from other scholars and explorers. He examines the physical characteristics, languages, religions, customs, and social structures of the various indigenous peoples and immigrant populations that make up these diverse regions.The book also includes detailed maps and illustrations, as well as tables and charts that provide statistical data on population demographics, language distribution, and other relevant factors. Latham's work is considered an important contribution to the field of ethnology, as it provides a detailed and nuanced understanding of the complex cultural and social dynamics at play in the British colonies and dependencies during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
