Book excerpt: William Smith is considered by many to be the Father of English Geology and is best rememberedfor his remarkable geological map of England and Wales, made in 1815.From an early date, Smith recognized that many of the strata which he showed on hismap were characterized by the fossils they contained. In 1816 he started a book called StrataIdentified by Organized Fossils which, although unfinished, was a fundamental work inestablishing the science of stratigraphy. In this book Smith figured fossils from each stratum.The fossil plates were exquisitely engraved by the renowned illustrator, naturalist and mineralogist,James Sowerby, from fossils provided by Smith.Although a brilliant geologist, Smith was an unlucky business man and because of hisprecarious financial position he was forced to sell his extensive fossil collection to the BritishMuseum. In William Smith's Fossils Reunited, the authors have included new photographs offossils from Smith's Collection, now housed at the Natural History Museum. These photographshave been arranged next to the original engravings, and in some cases, Smith's sketches.Smith's original texts for both Strata Identified and a later work Stratigraphical System ofOrganized Fossils, which catalogued the fossils, have been reprinted within the book. AsSmith roamed the English countryside collecting fossils he was careful to note the exactgeographical location of each fossil and also the rock layer from which it came. In this bookthese locations are shown on copies of Smith's own geological maps.With a Foreword by Sir David Attenborough, William Smith's Fossils Reunited is intendedboth for the William Smith enthusiast and also for those with a more general interest in thework of this remarkable pioneering geologist. The fossil illustrations and maps in this exquisitevolume are aesthetically pleasing in their own right and demonstrate the extraordinary skill ofearly nineteenth-century engravers and map makers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Strata Identified by Organized Fossils In a similar way, also, the benefits resulting from the science of Botany, have been equally limited, and likely to remain so, until those who grow the grasses shall take the trouble to distinguish one from another, or until those who know them scientifically shall condescend to become the cultivators. Nature furnishes the clue to each of these sciences, and to the most extensive application of their benefits. She has also given the Farmer other more easy. Helps, to much of the useful knowledge he requires. The method of knowing the Substrata from each other by their various substances imbedded, will consequently shew the difference in their soils - All this is attainable by rules the most correct, and easily learnt, and also the simplest and most extensive that can well be devised; for by the help of organized Fossils alone, a science is established with characters on which all must agree, as to the extent of the Strata in which they are imbedded, those characters are universal and a knowledge of them Opens the most extensive sources of information, without the necessity of deep reading, or the previous acquirement of difficult arts.
