Download or read book The American Geologist Vol 22 Classic Reprint written by N. H. Winchell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Geologist, Vol. 22 One may well ask why the spit began, and when it will end. I am not certain that I fully and clearly understand this point, though I see plainly that it is through no chance or accidental conditions that the spit develops. It has an explanation in the law, everywhere illustrated on coast lines, that waves sup plied with material will discover the easiest means of dis posing of it. In the case of Crowbar point the waves were, in the first place, driving materials both ways, the south winds pushing the pebbles toward the north and the north winds driving them in the reverse direction. There was a bend in the coast due to the projection of the old land; to this the waves from the south brought materials, but there they lost some of their power, and hence could not continue to carry all their load beyond the point, so some was dropped on the very point. The same was true of the waves from the north. They were able not merely to drive along the materials which they had wrested from the rocks, but also to turn back some of the debris which the south waves had driven beyond the point. But when these waves passed the point they lost their force likewise, and so both north and south-moving waves made this a dumping ground. As they built the spit out into the water, the interference of the point with the movement of materials to the north or south became greater and greater, until, at present, the spit forms an almost perfect barrier for the larger fragments. Had the south waves been greatly less powerful than those from the north, there would have been built a bar extending nearly parallel to the coast; but with nearly perfectly balanced waves from the two directions, the Spit must grow directly outward.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Geologist, Vol. 8: A Monthly Journal of Geology and Allied Sciences, July to December, 1891 Situated right in the midst of the Taconic region Mt. Greylock has been often alluded to during the last seventy years in the much debated Taconic Question. Professors C. Dewey, E. Emmons, E. Hitchcock and J. D. Dana are the principal authorities on the geology of the mountain. The general synclinal structure of the mass and also the fact that it consists mainly of certain schists underlaid by limestone are well known. Professor Dana has also conjectured the anticlinal structure of the hollow which separates two of its ridges. The following description is based upon the new 20 ft. Contour map made by the topographers of the U. S. Geological Survey, and upon extended and laborious geological explorations, and upon the careful microscopic study of lithological specimens by Mr. J. E. Wolff. The results of modern topography, orography and petrography have been brought to bear upon the subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Personally, to those who came within the circle of his intimate acquaintance, he possessed rare charms of character. Sincere, frank, conscientious inthe highest degree, he was a warm and true friend. Possessed of a rollicking brusque humor, his intercourse was marked by a freshness that was a source Of constant enjoyment and attrae tion to his intimate associates. NO phrase better expresses it than picturesqueness. Modest and retiring, the number Of his close friends was not large but their attachment to him was strong. The full Strength Of these attachments has only been realized in their breaking. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Geologist, Vol. 26: A Monthly Journal of Geology and Allied Sciences On Sunday, the 19th day of November, 1899, there passed away to his long rest, one whose name has been inseparably connected with the progress and advancement of geological as well as palaeontological research, in the Dominion of Canada. For a few years back Sir William Dawson's health began to fail as advancing years rolled on. The constant strain of a long life of intense activity and incessant labour, at last wore out the chords of life in his person. He died peacefully at his residence, 293 University street, Montreal, just as the first hour of the day of rest dawned, surrounded by his wife and constant companion and a number of his children. Sir William accomplished enough during his life, in the interests of education, science, and religion to satisfy any three hardworking individuals. He leaves behind him such monuments of industry and perseverance as few men do. The Peter Red-path Museum of McGill University alone is a monument which for ages will give food for thought to the coming generations, both to students of the university and to the geologists who seek to unravel the problems of geological science in the different portions of Canada, but more especially those of the maritime provinces, his native land.
