Sollas, William Johnson. Age of the earth, and other geological studies. *$3. Dutton.
A series of ten essays and addresses by the Professor of geology at Oxford. “In sufficiently popular form they present the latest hypotheses, researches and conclusions of the science on points of primary importance, together with some of secondary interest.” (Outlook.)
“The Professor discourses pleasantly and well, writing with command of much scientific learning, yet always readably, sometimes with brilliancy of diction, and occasionally with a touch of humor. Even the most abstruse subject fails to make him altogether dull.”

“The book is entirely readable, and will serve to bring workers in all manner of fields the views of one who holds that nothing terrestrial is foreign to the subject of geology.”
