Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Geology In this revision I have associated with me my youngest son, who has borne a large share in the work. As assist ant in the geological survey of Vermont, a large part of the last three years has been devoted by him to the study of the rocks in the mountains, and in writing out their de scriptions. Should it happen, as most likely it will, that this is the last revision of the work I shall ever make, and he should survive me, I trust he will be found fully com petent to keep the work up to the advancing state of the science, should the public call for its continued publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Geology To the introduction of printing, after the middle of the fifteenth century, must be attributed the great impetus given to learning, though we may discern no evidence of development in the mental capacity over the great philosophers of Greece and Rome.

Download or read book Geology of Cincinnati and Vicinity Classic Reprint written by Nevin M. Fenneman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-10 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology of Cincinnati and Vicinity It is not to be expected, however, that the benefits of such a treatise shall be confined to those who are sufficiently advanced to read and comprehend it without help. The writer of a book cannot do in it the work of the classroom, but it is hard to conceive of a teacher of any grade of Geography or Nature Study as knowing what is in this book and then keeping entirely away from these subjects in his daily work. Perhaps this is more true of the general chapters which lend themselves to Nature Study than of the chapters treating Specifically of this area. For the last five years, classes of teachers from Cincinnati and near by cities have spent their Saturday forenoons at the University or in the field, studying this subject. In the amount of previous information with which they approached the subject, and in the nature of the in struction required, these people have doubtless been good representatives of the intelligent teacher and the intelligent business man. Much that follows was written not only with this class of people in mind but with these very individuals in mind, not so much as they are now since studying the subject, but as they came with very little but the interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Town Geology Student's Elements of Geology. I have tried rather to teach the method of geology, than its facts; to furnish the student with a key to all geology, rough indeed and rudi mentary, but sure and sound enough, I trust, to help him to unlock most geological problems which he may meet, in any quarter of the globe. But young men must remember always, that neither' this book. Nor all the books in the world, will make them geolo gists. No amount of book learning will make a man a scientific man: nothing but patient observation, and quiet and fair thought over what he has observed. He must go out for himself, see for himself, compare and judge for himself, in the field, the quarry, the cut ting. He must study rocks, ores, fossils, in.
