Third Edition, thoroughly revised, and illustrated with 520 Woodcuts. 8vo. 12s.
"The production of one of our most eminent geologists in an age of many. Though styled a 'third edition,' it is in reality a new book. This could not be otherwise if the task were well done; for the science of which Sir Charles Lyell treats is assuming new aspects every year. It is continually advancing and ever growing. As it advances, its steps become firmer and surer; as it grows, its framework becomes more compact, and its organization more perfect. They who take up the hammer to follow it must toil with unflagging tread to keep pace with its onward progress. If they lag behind, they can scarcely hope to overtake. None among its votaries has marked each movement more minutely, or weighed its value and purpose more judiciously, than the distinguished author of this Manual. He has indeed done his task well, and both the beginner and the experienced investigator will find his book an invaluable guide and companion."—Literary Gazette.
