Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In the early nineteenth century, the gifted stratigrapher and amateur geologist William Phillips (1773-1828) gave several lectures to interested young people in Tottenham on the subject of geology. These lectures were later collected into a book, which Phillips expanded in later versions. This reached its peak in 1822 when the clergyman William Daniel Conybeare (1787-1857) collaborated with Phillips to produce this rigorous and improved assessment of the geological composition of England and Wales. Although no second volume was ever published, the book had a tremendous impact on geologists throughout the United Kingdom and Europe, inspiring foreign scholars to produce equivalent volumes about their own countries. Conybeare's concern for the stratigraphy of fossils is especially remarkable for the time. William Fitton, later president of the Geological Society of London, praised the book highly, remarking that 'no equal portion of the earth's surface has ever been more ably illustrated'.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. CONYBEARE, W.D. (1787-1857) and WILLIAM PHILLIPS (1775-1828). Outlines of the geology of England and Wales, with an introductory compendium of the general principles of that science, and comparative views of the structure of foreign countries. Part I. (all published). London: W. Phillips, G. Yard, 1822. FIRST EDITION. 8 vo. Contemp. calf, rebacked, with contrasting spine labels. (8), lxi, (1, blank), (2, half-title misbound here), (3), 3-57, (1), (2, inserted leaf), (1), 60-470 pp. Folding hand-colored engraved geological map of England & Wales as frontispiece + multi-folding hand-colored engraved linen-backed plate of geological sections + folding letterpress table + a few woodcuts in the text. A very good copy. "Conybeare was one of the most active early members of the 'Oxford school' of geology and was a close associate of William Buckland. He was one of the most able British exponents of the synthesis of progressionism and catastrophism, which dominated geology in the 1820's and 1830's. His most important single work was his great enlargement and improvement of William Phillips' compilation of English stratigraphy. This created a synopsis of stratigraphical knowledge that was at the time unrivaled in detail and accuracy. In the general introduction to the 'Outlines', Conybeare considered the range of 'actual causes' but regarded them as inadequate to explain such phenomena as the 'diluvium' (glacial drift) and the form of valleys; for these he proposed diluvial explanations, although without stressing any concordance with the scriptural flood. The 'Outlines' described British stratigraphy back to the Carboniferous and was termed 'Part I'; Adam Sedgwick was to have assisted Conybeare with a second volume on the earlier strata, but it was never published."

Sole edition. 8vo. (viii), lxi, (3), 58, (2), 59-470, (2) pp. Recent dark green moiré cloth, gilt lettered red spine label, early ownership inscription of a W. Parry to the head of the title page. Geological frontispiece map of England and Wales plus a long hand coloured plate of strata, another plate of geological apparatus and a table - all folding. Very good. Although the title page states "Part I" no further material was published. Conybeare was "one of the band of pioneers [who] raised the study of rocks and fossils into the science of geology. The chief investigator and describer of the early discoveries of marine fossil reptiles in Britain" (Challinor p. 185).…
