“I was going through my Great Grandmother’s old school books, and found this “Race Types” plate in Maury’s New Complete Geography, copyright 1906.

Also, this books groups Anglo-Saxon, Arab, Hebrew, Russian, and others all as “Caucasian,” and classifies American Negro as “Ethiopian.”
Is 2008 better or worse than 1906?”
