"The author of this work stands in the very front rank of scientific men, and his works upon the sciences, to which he has devoted his great powers, and his Indefatigable study, are the standard books upon those subjects. This Manual has had a very great sale in England, and its successive editions have kept pace with the steady progress of geological science. To the last edition, new and important pages have been added, containing the latest discoveries In geology. This study has never before received so great attention as at present, and in no other country can it be studied so profitably and with such practical results as in this."—Providence Journal.

"This is a standard work, on one of the most wonderful of modern sciences. In connection with the "Principles of Geology," by the same author, it gives a complete survey of the science at its present stage of advancement. We commend these works to the serious attention of those fossil theologians who esteem it their duty to bring the Bible, if they can, into conflict with the inductive sciences, and who think that their interpretation of Genesis is a sufficient reply to all the inductions of Geology."—Recorder.
