Excerpt from The Cretaceous Rocks of Britain, Vol. 2: The Lower and Middle Chalk of England
In the Preface to the first volume of this memoir on the Cretaceous Rocks it was stated that the description of the Up or Cretaceous strata would be published in two volumes, but it has since been found more convenient to divide the work into three volumes. That now issued is the second of this series, and deals with the Lower and Middle Chalk; the third will include the description of the Upper Chalk, with chapters on Economics, the Water-supply, and the Physical Features of Chalk areas, together with a com lete catalogue of the fossils found in all three divisions of t e Chalk.
