Excerpt from The Elements of Geology: Adapted to the Use of Schools and Colleges Technical terms have, in a few instances, been introduced, and principles referred to, which are subsequently explained. The index will, however, enable the student to understand them, without a separate glossary. Some may prefer to commence with the second chapter, deferring the study of the elementary substances, minerals and rocks, to the last. Such a course may be pursued with out Special inconvenience. Questions have been added, for the convenience of those teachers who may prefer to conduct their recitations by this means. But, when the circumstances of the case admit of it, a much more complete knowledge of the subject will be acquired by pupils who are required to analyze the sections, and proceed with the recitation themselves; while the teach er has only to correct misapprehension, explain what may seem obscure, and introduce additional illustrations.

Excerpt from A d104-Book of Geology: Intended as an Introduction to the Study of the Rocks and Their Contents This is nominally the fourth edition of a work which first appeared in 1889. But so many additions and alterations have been made that it is practically a new book. The changes were so extensive as to necessitate the resetting in new type of the entire work; and the publishers have taken advantage of this to introduce both larger and clearer type and a larger page. Many new illustrations have also been added, several of these being from photographs taken by myself especially for this book. In Geology, as in all the other sciences, constant and rapid progress is being made. The changes in, and additions to our knowledge of the rocks have been especially great in the strata which form the beginning and the end of the geological series respectively - O-the pre-cambrian and Cambrian Formations at the beginning, and the Glacial Series near the end. Special care has been devoted to bringing these portions of the book up to date. It has been remarked that geology cannot be learnt from boo but it is equally true that geology cannot be learnt without books. Certainly the rocks themselves are the best teachers, but it has taken thousands of years to acquire the power of interpreting the signs of those rocks, and the student must make himself master of the principal facts that the numerous workers in this field of knowledge have already collected. 1 would urge the student to go direct to nature.

Excerpt from Alphabet of Geology and Elements of Mineralogy: A Treatise Designed for Students at School or at Home, and Especially Adapted to the Advanced Classes of the Common Schools The climate, soil and productions of the different countries are so varied, that we naturally expect the rocks to differ, but we find Wonderful uniformity everywhere. We find the upheaved granite and all other primary rocks the same in Europe, Asia and Africa, as in America; and the deposits of the precious metals are about equally accessible to all the inhabitants of the globe; iron, coal and the other useful minerals are very abundant.
