Soft cover. Condición: VG. 1901, pp169-178. Removed from WITH THE WORLD'S GREAT TRAVELLERS, Edited by Charles Morris and Oliver H.G. Leigh. May include a first or last copied page. VG. From the introduction: "British Guiana, the land which seems so strongly inclined to extend its borders at the expense of Venezuela, is as yet very far from being the active and well-developed settlement which might be imagined from the aggressiveness of its rulers. Mr. Brown's story of it indicates a land of which nature is still largely the lord, and which is so little known that he, as late as twenty years ago, was able to discover a river and a cataract not previously heard of. The selection we append, descriptive of the wild animals of the country, is significant of an undeveloped land. Mr. Brown, in his CANOE AND CAMP LIFE IN BRITISH GUIANA, describes a number of unsuccessful efforts to shoot jaguars.".…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Structure and Surface: A Book of Field Geology' is a practical and technical guide dedicated to the methods and principles of geological observation in the field. The work serves as a foundational manual for students and professional geologists alike, focusing on the critical relationship between the internal structural arrangement of rock masses and the physical features displayed on the Earth's surface. By bridging the gap between theoretical study and active fieldwork, the book provides a clear framework for interpreting the complex history of a landscape through its visible topography.The text covers essential topics such as the identification of various rock types, the measurement of folds and faults, and the systematic techniques required for accurate geological surveying and mapping. The author emphasizes the importance of deduction and precise observation, guiding the reader through the process of reconstructing subterranean structures based on surface data. Rich in methodological detail, 'Structure and Surface: A Book of Field Geology' is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in structural geology, geomorphology, and the rigorous scientific approach to understanding the Earth's physical evolution.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book records the adventures of a geologist and his colleagues exploring the Amazon River and its tributaries in 1873. At the time, much of the area was unmapped, allowing the team to make important geographical observations as they traveled in search of territories allotted to them by the Brazilian government. The book paints a fascinating picture of the Amazon rainforest and the challenges encountered while traversing this harsh terrain. Exploring rivers, lakes and mountains, the men faced arduous journeys and encounters with insect pests, tropical diseases, and fierce animals. But the team pressed on, determined to complete their scientific mission and document the wonders of this largely unexplored region. Through their adventures, the book offers a glimpse of the Amazon as it existed a century and a half ago and provides insights into the history of exploration in South America. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
