Présentation de l'éditeur
Originally published during the early part of the twentieth century, the Cambridge Manuals of Science and Literature were designed to provide concise introductions to a broad range of topics. They were written by experts for the general reader and combined a comprehensive approach to knowledge with an emphasis on accessibility. First published in 1913, this small volume by Clement Reid was among the first attempts to survey the ancient layers of land surfaces and forests that lie submerged along the coasts and estuaries of Britain. The inconvenient position of these submerged forests made them a little-studied subject, but Reid's consummate and still relevant work shows that they are full of interest for geologists, botanists, zoologists and even archaeologists.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the hidden history of submerged forests, those ancient woodlands that lie beneath the waves along the coast of Britain. The author delves into the fascinating question of how these forests came to be underwater, investigating various theories, including land subsidence, changes in sea level, and the impact of coastal erosion. Drawing on meticulous research, the book examines the evidence found in dock excavations, tunnels, and coastal exposures, offering a compelling glimpse into a lost world. Readers will learn about the types of trees found in these submerged forests, the animals that once roamed them, and the tools and artifacts left behind by early humans. The author also discusses the role of these forests in the study of climate change and the evolution of plant and animal life. Through its exploration of these forgotten landscapes, this book reveals the dynamic nature of the Earth's surface and the profound changes that have shaped our world over time.
