The formal textbook would not suit the class of readers addressed. The style of light reading would have been unworthy of the theme, and would not have supplied the substantial information here intended. The writer has often felt that graphic illustrations would have rendered portions of the text more intelligible, and therefore, more entertaining; but these would have enhanced the cost of the book beyond limits which for other reasons seemed desirable. The method of treatment is simple. The reader begins with the familiar objects at his very door. His observations are extended to the field, the lake, the torrent, the valley, and the mountain. They widen over the continent until all the striking phenomena of the surface have been surveyed. Occasionally, trains of reasoning suggested by the facts are followed out until the outlines of geological theories emerge. The course of observation and reasoning then penetrates beneath the surface. The various formations and their most striking fossils are described, first in descending order, to the oldest. We find here indications of heat which stimulate speculation and bring out the grounds of a nebular theory of worldorigin. From this starting point, the treatment now handles the subject in historical order, weaving into a narrative, the dry facts previously noted. Reaching the end of the history, the treatment pauses for retrospect and reflection; and here are brought to view some of the higher and more abstruse thoughts connected with the subject of the book. It is hoped the perusal of this work may impart some clear conceptions of that grand range of scientific truths with which it deals. It is hoped, also, that a relish may be stimulated which will seek its gratification in the scholarly study of works of higher range and more exacting method." ; decorative brown and black cloth with gold lettering and designs ; Signature of Lizzie Peek (1862-1923), graduate of the State Women's College in Valdosta Georgia and the daughter of Senator W L Peek (1837-1922) of Conyers, who made an unsuccessful bid for Governor of Georgia as a Farmer's Alliance candidate in 1892, when he was attacked by a mob ; FINE.

London, Thames & Hudson, n.d. (2000), 92 pag., coloured photographic illustrations, original hardcover with dustjacket, quarto (as new). = In 1989 Andy Goldsworthy constructed his Wall that Went for a Walk in Grizedale Forest, Cumbria, which drew on the walling traditions of that area. Now, aided by a team of wallers from Scotland and the north of England, he has made its successor at the Storm King Art Center, a sculpture park in New York State - another farming landscape rich in stone walls. Goldsworthy's wall takes its lead from an old, dilapidated wall which he found here. At first following the original foundations closely, his wall then describes a series of increasingly voluptuous arabesques before plunging down into a lake. Rising again on the other side, it heads straight up a grassy slope to stop dead when it reaches a major highway. As the seasons change, so does the wall. Heavily shaded in summer, smothered in a sea of yellow and brown leaves in the autumn, it has an almost calligraphic beauty in winter as it snakes through the bare trees and snow at the edge of a wood. This sculpture marks a continuation of the dialogue between wood and stone which Goldsworthy has been exploring for some years. The original wall at Storm King was built after the forest had been cleared, yet he discovered its course in the line of trees that had grown through and around it. Goldsworthy traces a new path with his wall, this time in sympathy with the trees, but in the knowledge that it may well one day be destroyed by them.
