Overview

Excerpt from Report on the Geology of the Henry Mountains The manuscript of the first edition was finished in the year 1877. It was at once put in type, and in anticipation Of a speedy issue the current year was marked on the imprint. There were, however, serious delays in the preparation of the illustrations, and it was not until 1879 that the volume was bound and distributed. Since the preparation of the manuscript the literature of the subject has been enriched by the publication of numerous descriptions of igneous mountains of the Plateau Province and of the Great Plains, and especially by important contributions to the physics Of volcan ism, in the light of which the author would be glad to give his work a full revision. The necessary time is not, however, at his disposal, and he has contented himself with a few verbal amendments and the addition of an appendix.
