Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mineralogy of Pennsylvania The development of mineralogy in Pennsylvania began while the science was yet in its youth. Its inception coincided with the great activity in Europe following upon the interesting discoveries of Priestley and Lavoisier, of Klaproth and Berzelius, and of Abbe Hauy. Great enthusiasm was aroused, resulting in a pilgrimage to the laboratory of Abbe Hauy, in the Ecole des Mines, of several residents of Pennsylvania, notably Adam Seybert, Gerard Troost (a Hollander by birth), and later, Lardner Vanuxem, and William Keating, who may be regarded as the first scientific mineralogists of America. On his return to Philadelphia, Adam Seybert brought with him a fine collection of minerals. It was extremely difficult at this time to get even such common minerals as quartz, hornblende, and feldspar determined, and it is interesting to note that in 1803, Benjamin Silliman, the founder of the American Journal of Science, journeyed to Philadelphia with the whole collection of Yale College, "a half bushel of unlabeled stones in a small box," to have them named by Seybert. Somewhat previous to this(1792) the Chemical Society of Philadelphia had been organized with the avowed purpose of acquiring information regarding the minerals of the United States. The society existed for seventeen years, and was succeeded in 1811 by the Columbian Chemical Society, in whose single volume of memoirs appeared an analysis of malachite from "Perkioming" by Thomas D.Mitchell. In 1812, the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia was organized with Dr. Gerard Troost as president. Mineralogically the first accession consisted of some artificial crystals prepared by Dr. Troost, but on August 15th the Academy acquired by purchase the collection of Adam Seybert, which later formed the sub-ject of a number of lectures by Troost. This collection, the oldest extant in America, is still kept intact in its original cabinet. In April, 1812, the members of the Academy made an excursion to the Perkiomen mines. Their activity is shown by the number of mineralogical and crystallographic papers that appeared in the early issues of the Journal of the Academy. In 1812, Isaac Lea published "An account of the minerals at present known to exist in the vicinity of Philadelphia." This was followed by more complete lists by Carpenter and Spackman, the results of a vacation trip on horseback into Delaware, Chester, and Lancaster counties. Some time before, however, Adam Seybert had published in 1808 A catalog of some minerals which are found in different parts of the United States. The mineral collection of the Academy grew rapidly, large numbers of specimens being presented by its members. In addition, it received the collections of Thomas MEuen, T.B. Wilson, Samuel Ashmead, George W.Carpenter, W.D. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
