MAN AND THE GLACIAL PERIOD. By G. Frederick Wright, D. D., LL. D., author of “The Ice Age in North America,” “Logic of Christian Evidences,” etc. International Scientific Series. With numerous Illustrations. 12mo. Cloth, $1.75.
“It may be described in a word as the best summary of scientific conclusions concerning the question of man’s antiquity as affected by his known relations to geological time.”—Philadelphia Press.
“The earlier chapters describing glacial action, and the traces of it in North America—especially the defining of its limits, such as the terminal moraine of the great movement itself—are of great interest and value. The maps and diagrams are of much assistance in enabling the reader to grasp the vast extent of the movement.”—London Spectator.

PRINCIPLES OF GEOLOGY; or, the Modern Changes of the Earth and its Inhabitants, considered as illustrative of Geology. By Sir Charles Lyell, Bart. Illustrated with Maps, Plates, and Woodcuts. Two vols., royal 8vo. Cloth, $8.00.
The “Principles of Geology” may be looked upon with pride, not only as a representative of English Science, but as without a rival of its kind anywhere. Growing in fullness and accuracy with the growth of experience and observation in every region of the world, the work has incorporated with itself each established discovery, and has been modified by every hypothesis of value which has been brought to bear upon, or been evolved from, the most recent body of facts.
