An adaptation of the essay that originally appeared in The Enemy, No.2, examining the presence and role of "race-consciousness" in contemporary literature and poetry. In the work Wyndham Lewis contextualises western man's innate tendency for self-destruction, particularly in light of the First World War, and considers the "melting pot" model that America aspires to, a subject he addresses again in his America and Cosmic Man (1948).

First edition, 8vo; foxing throughout, original two-tone black & white cloth, dust-jacket with design by Lewis, browned at spine with loss to head & tail, some chips to fore-corners and top-edge of upper panel.
