Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lyell's Travels in North America: In the Years 1841-2 Lyell held for a short time in 1831 the professorship of geology at King's College, London; but whenever his literary duties would permit, he lost no opportunity of exploring distant lands in the interests of science. In 1834 he made an excursion to Denmark and Sweden, and again in 1837. And besides the British Isles, his investigations carried him to Belgium, Switzer land, Germany, Spain, Madeira, Teneriffe, Sicily and the United States. Lyell visited this country in 1841, having been invited to de liver the Lowell Lectures in Boston. He remained here until the Fall of the following year, and took the opportunity of traveling widely over a large portion of the northern and middle states. His work, Travels in North America in the Years 1841 - 2, gives one a good account of men and manners in this country from the viewpoint of a foreigner. He again visited this country in 1845, and left his account of the trip in A Second Visit to the United States. Lyell received the honor of Knighthood in 1848; and in the year 1864, when he was president of the British Association, he was created a baronet. In his advanced years, his sight, always feeble, failed him altogether. He died, as has been stated, in 1875; and was buried in Westminister Abbey. He holds first rank among geologists; and belongs to that group of great Eng lish scientists, among whom were Darwin, Huxley, Tyndall and Spencer.
