Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geological Magazine, or Monthly Journal of Geology, 1882, Vol. 9: With Which Is Incorporated "the Geologist," Nos. 211 to 222; Decade II Among these pioneers we now and again see one whose ardent enthusiasm, restless activity, clearness of intellect, and dominant force of mind make him a giant among his fellows. Such a one was Linnarsson. In breadth of scientific attainments, in ability for con tinned and intense labour, and in the magnitude of the results he achieved, Linnarsson stood head and shoulders above all his con temporaries. To one who had accomplished so much. It seemed to the lookers-ou that everything was possible. It was felt that all obstacles vanished at his touch. The difficult became easy, the obscure became clear, and the complex became simplicity itself. And all this was performed with such rapidity, and with such quiet ease, that few knew at What a dreadful cost of wear and tear of body and mind it was accomplished. When at last the worn-out frame gave way, and the glowing flame of intellect went out suddenly in darkness and death, the consternation and sorrow were hearty and universal.

These have not been seen in the southern section of the tunnel, though it is possible that they may be represented there by some geological equivalent.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geological Magazine, or Monthly Journal of Geology, 1891, Vol. 8: With Which Is Incorporated "the Geologist," Nos. 319 to 330; Decade III In contrast with this the Extra-peninsular area, if we except the Upper Tertiary beds at the top of the sequence and the Archaean gneisses at the base, contains few sedimentary rocks which are not of marine origin. Almost everywhere they are intensely disturbed, and the area is essentially one of structural mountain ranges, that is, of ranges whose general direction is closely connected with, and caused by, the disturbance the beds have undergone. Of this area we are at present concerned with the Himalayas, that system of mountains which rises abruptly from the plains of Upper India, range beyond range, to the snow-clad summits forming the highest Spots on the surface of the Earth. In the contour of the two areas there is a vast difference. The surface of the Peninsular area shows rounded outlying and gentle slopes, except where the outcrop of hard or massive beds has led to the formation of scarps; the gradients of the streams are at, their beds sandy, and seldom do they show signs of active erosion of their channels; in fact, the Peninsular area shows all the features of an ancient land-surface, long exposed to subaerial denudation, in which the streams and hill-lpes have alike gone far towards reaching a condition of equilibrium. The Himalayas, on the contrary, are a region Of deep, steep-sided, valleys and gorges nearly everywhere the streams and rivers alike are torrents owing over a bed of coarse boulders, everywhere, with but local exceptions, they are evidently eroding their channels, while the steep slopes and sharp crests of the ridges, no less than the constant landslips and general instability Of the soil, betoken a country in which the action Of rain and frosts on the hill-sides has not been able to keep pace with the deepening of the stream-beds by erosion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geological Magazine, or Monthly Journal of Geology, Vol. 4: January December, 1907 Director of the Geological Survey of Scotland, however remote his field of work might be, his ever-active pen and pencil kept him in touch with the world at large. The Story of a Boulder. Gleanings from the Notebook of a Geologist his Memoir of Edward Forbes The Scenery Of Scotland viewed in connection with its Physical Geology (1865, 3rd edition and many other of his writings 1 were read with the keenest enjoyment. We published in February, 1890, a portrait of Sir A. Geikie and a brief summary of his work up to that date, just prior to his election for the first time as President of the Geological Society. The addresses which he gave during the two years that he occupied the chair formed the nucleus Of perhaps his most important work, published in 1897 under the title of The Ancient Volcanoes of Great Britain, two volumes, beautifully printed and illustrated. In the same year he established the Summary of Progress Of the Geological Survey, an annual publication which gives an official record of the work done by this institution. He prefaced the first number with an account of the Origin and History of the Geological Survey and Museum, a subject which he had dealt with more personally in 1895 in his Memoir of Sir Andrew Crombie Ramsay. While still Director General he edited in 1899 a third volume of Hutton's Theory of the Earth, from the ms. That had long been in the possession of the Geological Society.
