Excerpt from The Negro's Place in Nature: A Paper Read Before the London Anthropological Society I propose in this communication to discuss the physical and mental charac ters of the Negro, with a view of deter mining not only his position in animated nature, but also the station he should occupy in the genus Homo. I shall nec essarily have to go over a wide field. And cannot hope to treat the subject in an exhaustive manner. I shall be amp ly satisfied if I succeed in directing the attention of my scientific friends to a study of this most important and hither to nearly neglected branch of study in the great science of Anthropology.

Excerpt from On the Negro's Place in Nature The neck of the Negro is generally short it is scarcely 8 to 9 centimetres, excepting very tall subjects, when it attains 10 centimetres; the prominence of the larynx is rounded; the shoulders are less powerful than in the Turanian or Aryan. The Negro prefers carrying his burden on the head. The Negro is shrunk in the flank, the abdomen frequently relaxed; the umbilicus, situated nearer the pubis than in the European, is slightly prominent.

'A beautiful, compelling artifice, spun from unspeakably savage facts . . . a fiction that faces the terrible truth about slavery' The Times WINNER OF THE COMMONWEALTH PRIZE FOR FICTION Based on a true story, Lawrence Hill's epic novel spans three continents and six decades to bring to life a dark and shameful chapter in our history through the story of one brave and resourceful woman. Abducted from her West African village at the age of eleven and sold as a slave in the American South, Aminata Diallo thinks only of freedom - and of finding her way home again. After escaping the plantation, torn from her husband and child, she passes through Manhattan in the chaos of the Revolutionary War, is shipped to Nova Scotia, and then joins a group of freed slaves on a harrowing return odyssey to Africa. What readers are saying: ***** 'Beautifully written ... an enlightening read' ***** 'Since reading, this has become my favourite book ever' ***** 'A powerful historical account of an incredible woman's journey'
