The Quest For A Lost Race is a book written by Thomas Edward Pickett in 1907. The book presents the theory of Paul B. Du Chaillu, an eminent ethnologist and explorer, who believed in the existence of a lost race. The book delves into the theories and ideas of Du Chaillu, who was convinced that there was a race of people who were more advanced than any other civilization on Earth. Du Chaillu believed that this lost race was responsible for many of the world's great achievements and that they had been wiped out by a catastrophic event. Pickett's book explores Du Chaillu's theories in detail, presenting evidence and arguments to support his ideas. The book discusses the various expeditions and research that Du Chaillu conducted in his quest to uncover the lost race, including his travels to Africa and South America. Pickett also examines the criticisms and skepticism that Du Chaillu faced from his contemporaries, and the impact that his theories had on the scientific community.Overall, The Quest For A Lost Race is a fascinating exploration of one man's quest to uncover a lost civilization.
