Focusing on the complex legacy of Madison Grant, the book explores his dual role as a pioneering environmentalist and a controversial proponent of eugenics in the early 20th century. While he played a crucial role in conservation efforts, such as protecting buffalo and redwood trees, his views on Darwinism and human evolution reveal a darker aspect of his beliefs. The narrative examines how Grant's progressive ideals were intertwined with the societal views of his time, prompting a reevaluation of his impact on both environmentalism and social thought.
