Quotes[edit]

  • While the major branches of the main trunk gathered strength, looked healthy, and spread far and wide, the latter, at the same time, withered, shriveled, and failed to show any indication of life and vitality and disappeared from sight and was lost for ever with- out leaving any trace or mark that might lead to its identification, nor could any fossil remains of it be detected or found out, so that it could be inferred that such a society in such a stage of development existed at one time, on the surface of the earth. . . . A story so imperfect in every important respect is put forward seriously for people to be- lieve in and accept as an authentic account of the ancient history of the Indo-European race. (59)
