LONDON: PRINTED FOR EDWARD AND CHARLES DILLY, IN THE POULTRY. MDCCLXXV [1775] James Adair set out to prove his theory that the Indians were lineal descendants of the Lost Tribes of Israel. This descent,'' Adair writes, "I shall endeavor to prove from their religious rites. civil and martial customs,their marriages, funeral ceremonies, manners, language, traditions and a variety of particulars." Devoting the first half of his book to proving this theory, he provides no less than twenty~three "arguments" that will astonish and fascinate the reader.
