Today is the birthday of Madison Grant, American aristocrat and pioneering advocate of white racial preservationism, immigration restriction, eugenics, anti-miscegenation laws, and the conservation of wildlife and wilderness. To learn more about Grant’s life and legacy, see these articles at Counter-Currents:
- Jonathan Bowden, “The E-Word: Eugenics and Environmentalism, Madison Grant and Lothrop Stoddard“
- Hubert Collins, “Ten Questions for Radical Environmentalist Derek Jensen, Part II“
- James Dunphy, “Madison Grant’s The Conquest of a Continent“
- Alex Graham, “Profiles of Early Conservationists” (Czech version here)
- Madison Grant, “White Men“
- C. F. Robinson, “Madison Grant’s Great Work The Conquest of a Continent“
Grant is also frequently tagged in Counter-Currents articles where he is discussed in another context.

A number of publications by or featuring Grant (mostly essay collections on immigration) have long been out of print and have never been reprinted by the various reprint mills (like Forgotten Books). It would be wonderful if Counter-Currents or a like-minded press would reprint them.
It’s a shame and scandal that until now no audio version of his most famous book (‘The Passing of the Great Race’) has been made.
Dear Gregory Johnson,
Remembering the life and work of Madison Grant is a great idea. He was of the most important race realists in the first half of past century. You or one of your writers should review some of his books for your webzine.
Here are some other names you should add to the birthday list: John Randal Baker, Arthur Jensen, Napoleon Chagnon and Carleton Coon.
