Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Mist curling low over a Scottish quarry, the sharp tang of stone in the air, and the layered secrets of ancient worlds waiting beneath each footstep-such is the atmosphere conjured by this enduring work of geological exploration. Set amid the rugged landscapes of Scotland's Old Red Sandstone, the narrative draws readers into the heart of nineteenth-century geological fieldwork, where each fossil discovery and stratum of sedimentary rock formations reveals a chapter of Earth's distant past. Through keen observation and a gift for vivid description, the author transforms the study of rock strata into a living story, illuminating the drama and patience required to reconstruct the world as it once was. At the crossroads of scientific inquiry and natural history, this volume brings the geology of Scotland to life with an immediacy that transcends its era. The careful detailing of paleozoic era geology and the patient unearthing of ancient fish and plant remains bridge the gap between scientific treatise and personal memoir. What emerges is not only a foundational text for students of earth science and historical geology, but also a meditative reflection on the passage of time and the human urge to understand the natural world. The prose, at once precise and evocative, invites both the seasoned geologist and the general reader to walk the old fields anew, discovering the enduring fascination of British geology. This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions. It has been restored for today's and future generations. This edition is not just a reprint - it's a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For those drawn to Scottish natural history or the quiet thrill of geological discovery, this restored work offers a unique window into the landscape's deep memory and the minds that first sought to decode it. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9789374598528
