Transcriber’s Note

In the “List of Publications” missing quotation marks have been added, but other inconsistent punctuation has not been changed.

In the index the spelling of Moncrieffe (from Moncrieff) and Skjervö (from Skerjvö) have been changed to match the spelling in the main text.

On [page 123] the signature copied as “Dr Hav. Pfeifer” appears to be that of the glacialist Dr Franz Xaver Pfeifer. The signature also appears in this form in The Journal of Geology.
