Excerpt from The Geological Observer, 1853
The following work was undertaken in the hope that the expe ricuce of many years might assist, and, perhaps, abridge the labours of those who may be desirous of entering upon the study of geology, and especially in the field. He object is, to afford a general view of the chief points of that science, such as existing observations would lead us to infer were established; to show how the correct ness of such observations may be tested; and to sketch the directions in which they may apparently be extended. Having been, to a certain extent, founded upon a little treatise, entitled How to Observe in Geology, long since out of print, a somewhat similar name has been retained for the present volume.
