This article focuses on the book "Old Civilization of the New World," by A. Hyatt Verrill. "Old Civilizations of the New World" is no exception to the unfortunate precedent. The author, an explorer and collector in Central America, has followed a previous "popular account" of the North American Indian with this volume about the organized civilizations of the new world. In relation to this area the book compares favorably with Paul Radin's recent poetic account because Verrill gives much more in formation and includes numerous and interesting illustrations.
