Focusing on some of the most important ethnographers in early
anthropology, this volume explores twelve defining works in the
foundational period from 1870 to 1922. It challenges the assumption
that intensive fieldwork and monographs based on it emerged only in
the twentieth century. What has been regarded as the age of
armchair anthropologists was in reality an era of active
ethnographic fieldworkers, including women practitioners and
Indigenous experts. Their accounts have multiple layers of meaning,
style, and content that deserve fresh reading. This reference work
is a vital source for rewriting the history of anthropology.
