To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In a few cases the race relationships are well made out by aid of language. The principal of these are the Romance peoples of southern and southwestern Europe as related to the old Roman: the modern European and the Persian and Hindus as related to the ancient Aryan; the Russian, Polish and Bohemian as related to the old Slavic; the Welch, Irish Gaelic and Breton as related to the old Keltic: the Assyrian, Hebrew, Arabic and Syriac as related to the old Semitic or Sumero-Accadian; the Turkish, ...Mongol, Hungarian, Finnish and Ostyak as related to the old Turanian, Etymological analysis, together with the study of certain funda- mental elements of grammatical structure, has brought out this relationship. But language has also great uncertainties as a basis for class- ification. Circumstances sometimes cause peoples or nations to lose their own language and take up another. Examples of this are the experience of the Negroes, who now speak English in the United States: and the Jews, who everywhere speak the language of the country in which they live, tho they have pre- served their national descent in great purity.
