About This Item
Several notes and smudges in the margins of the texts. Notes are present on the inside front binding and on the front free end paper. Illustrations throughout. Volume is slightly cocked. Six pages of ads included. From the Introduction, "We have said geology treats of the history of the past conditions of the earth and its inhabitants. The evidences of the past conditions are found in its present structure. But, to understand this structure, we must observe the manner in which similar structure is formed under our eyes. Thus, observation of causes now in operation constitutes the only solid foundation of geology."
