The focus of his work was the application of scientific method to the study of human society and the development of culture. His work was based on an evolutionary model of ethnology, proposing that civilized society had originated from natural (rather that supernatural) processes that could be observed in "savage" or "uncivilized" contemporary societies. A tour of Mexico inspired his first work, "Anahuac, or Mexico and the Mexicans" (1861), a travelogue with ethnological observations of the 1855 trip. This was followed in 1865 by "Researches into the Early History of Mankind," his first systematic ethnological look at the world. His two volume work of 1871, "Primitive Culture," resulted in his election as a Fellow of the Royal Society and established him as the leading English anthropologist of his generation.
