Excerpt from Palaeolithic Man: In N. W. Middlesex, the Evidence of His Existence and the Physical Conditions Under Which He Lived in Ealing and Its Neighborhood Illustrated by the Condition and Culture Presented by Certain Existing Savages

By comparing the large collection of specimens in my hands with the stone implements still in use, or until recently employed by savage people, my end has been to understand the various pur poses for which they were designed and fashioned, while by considering the state of culture of certain savage races selected for that purpose, from many others, the reader is enabled to realise the probable mode of life, conditions, and culture of the river drift men similarly situated as to climate and other conditions.
