Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Geological Manual
As the author has endeavoured to address himself less to the accomplished geologist than to the student, though it is hoped that the former may also find matter interest ing to him, he has been particularly anxious to point out his various sources of information, even when he has him self visited the same countries; that, independently of the fundamental principle suum caique, the student should be enabled more fully to avail himself of the labours 'of the various authors cited, by referring to their published works for greater detail than could be admitted into a volume of this description.
