Contents Description:

First published in 1877, Lewis Henry Morgan's book has had a profound effect on both anthropology and Marxist social theory. In it he traces the rise of organized societies from hunter-gatherer bands to urban settlements and offers arguments on the rise of statehood, the family, and property. - from the back cover
