An admirable book. It is a clear and interesting _resume_ of
the results of geological investigation, told in simple
language, devoid of technicalities. The unscientific reader

elaborate and professional books upon the same subject. It
is vigorously written, and with a certain picturesqueness
that is exceedingly attractive. The chapters upon primitive
man are peculiarly interesting.--_Saturday Evening Gazette_,
Boston.
The pleasantly written volume before us tells the story of
the paleontology and physical geography of the earth in
