Clark Grahame, Piggott Stuart. Prehistoric Societies

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1965. — 357 p. — (The History of Human Society).This series will provide a picture of man's social life—accurate, vivid, readable, free from cosmic theories, concerned with the diversity of human experience, analytic yet evocative, and charged with that sense of reality which only the finest scholarship can create. Its aim will be twofold—to bring a full understanding of the societies they describe and to illustrate the growth of man's control over the physical universe.Introduction by J. H. Plumb.
