I read Kidner and must have missed that. I certainly would have used it

Alexander Winchell wrote The Preadamites in 1888. He did figure out that
Adam came too late to start the human race, but reckoned he was just in
time to start the Caucasion race. So all the Preadamites were
non-white. He even included engravings of each racial type just so we
could make no mistake what he meant. I doubt you will find his book in
many libraries today. He was department chair of the University of
Michigan's biology department as I remember
