Where can this book be reviewed?!

For what it's worth I have written a blog article about the book here: Arthur de Gobineau: Essai sur l'Inégalité des Races Humaines.

[edit] neutral online copy?

Is there an online version from a neutral source? We typically try to give our readers links to online versions of out-of-copyright texts, but in this case I can only find it published on white-nationalist sites, and am a bit wary of linking to outright propagandist sites. I don't suppose anyone has come across it in a neutral third-party historical archive? --Delirium 06:38, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re. Gobineau and the Bible

Just for the record: I have added that section, because it is a common claim that there was no racism before Charles Darwin published The Origin of Species in 1859. It's not that I in any way endorse Gobineau's idea. --FreezBee 17:56, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
