My instinct is to point out that your entire experiment proceeds from a basic flaw – no coherent, fixed definition of race actually exists . . . As historian James McPherson points out, Southerners not only thought of themselves as a race separate from blacks, but as a race apart from Northern whites . . . Similarly, in 1899 William Z. Ripley wrote The Races of Europe, which sought to delineate racial difference [in Europe] through head-type . . . Two years later, Edward A. Ross sought to apprehend “The Causes of Race Superiority.” He saw the differences between the Arab “race” and the Jewish “race” as a central illustration . . . [more]

With becoming deference, I shall endeavour to illustrate in the following pages, the observations I have personally made upon the Coast of Africa, and to give the information I have obtained from an extended circle of Chiefs, and native Tribes, relative to its Inhabitants, their Religion, Habits and Customs, the natural productions and commercial resources, &c. and attempt to delineate the most eligible grounds upon which the condition of the African may be effectually improved, and our commercial relations be preserved with that important quarter of the globe.

As This Work Professes, In Its Title-Page, To Be A Descriptive Tale, They Who Will Take The Trouble To Read It May Be Glad To Know How Much Of Its Contents Is Literal Fact, And How Much Is Intended To Represent A General Picture. The Author Is Very Sensible That, Had He Confined Himself To The Latter, Always The Most Effective, As It Is The Most Valuable, Mode Of Conveying Knowledge Of This Nature, He Would Have Made A Far Better Book. But In Commencing To Describe Scenes, And Perhaps He May Add Characters, That Were So Familiar To His Own Youth, There Was A Constant Temptation To Delineate That Which He Had Known, Rather Than That Which He Might Have Imagined. This Rigid Adhesion To Truth, An Indispensable Requisite In History And Travels, Destroys The Charm Of Fiction; For All That Is Necessary To Be Conveyed To The Mind By The Latter Had Better Be Done By Delineations Of Principles, And Of Characters In Their Classes, Than By A Too Fastidious Attention To Originals.

Attempts to delineate local character are always liable to misconstruction; for, the more truthful the sketch, the greater is the number of persons, to whom resemblance may be discovered; and thus, while in fact only describing the characteristics of a class, authors are frequently subjected, very unjustly, to the imputation of having invaded the privacy of individuals. Particularly is this so, when the class is idealized, and an imaginary type is taken, as the representative of the species. I deem it proper, therefore, to say in advance, that no attempt has been made in the following pages, to portray any individual; and that--although I hope I have not been so unsuccessful, as to paint pictures which have no originals--if there be a portrait in any sketch, it consists, not in the likeness of the picture to the person, but of both to the type. As originally projected, the book would have borne this explanation upon its face; but the circumstances which have reduced its dimensions, and changed its plan, have also rendered necessary a disclaimer, which would, otherwise, have been superfluous.
