Notes On The United States Of North America, During A Phrenological Visit In 1838-9-40; Volume 1

Notes on the United States of North America During a Phrenological Visit in 1838-9-40 is a fascinating look at the United States in the mid-19th century from the perspective of phrenology, a popular but ultimately discredited pseudoscience that claimed to be able to predict human behavior based on the shape of the skull.
