Excerpt from Mount Seir, Sinai and Western Palestine: Being a Narrative of a Scientific Expedition The outcome of an Expedition is a book; and in the preparation of this narrative, which has been a labour of love, I have many friends to thank for their assistance. But I must here confine my special acknowledgment to two composite bodies, namely, the members of the Expedition, and the Committee and Secretary of the "Palestine Exploration Fund," who have endeavoured to meet my wishes is every way. For the defects which may be found in the book itself, I can only plead the pressure on my time from many engagements.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1904 Excerpt: ...mass has descended into the W. Haidan between cliffs of limestone and marl on either hand. Around Jebel Attarus--a dome-shaped hill of limestone--a sheet of basaltic lava has been poured, and has descended the deep gorge of the Zerka Main, which enters the Dead Sea some 2000 feet below. This gorge had been eroded before the basaltic eruption, so that the stream of molten lava took its course down the bed of this stream to the water's edge, and grand sections have been laid bare by subsequent erosion along the banks. Pentagonal columns of black basalt form perpendicular walls, first on one side, then on the other; while considerable masses of scoriae, peperino, and breccia appear at the head of the glen, probably marking the orifice of eruption. Other eruptions of basalt occur, one at Mountar ez Zara, to the south of Zerka Main, and another at Wady Ghuweir, near the north-eastern end of the Dead Sea. There are no lava-streams on the western side of the Ghor, or of the Dead Sea.1 The outburst of the celebrated thermal springs of Callirrhoe, together with nine or ten others, along the channel of the Zerka Main, is a circumstance which cannot be dissociated from the occurrence of basaltic lava at this spot. In a reach of three miles, according to Tristram, there are ten principal springs, of which the fifth in descent is the largest; but the seventh and eighth, about half a mile lower down, are the most remarkable, giving forth large supplies of sulphurous water. The tenth and last is the hottest of all, indicating a temperature of 1430 Fahr. Thus it would appear that the heat increases with the depth from the upper surface of the table-land; a result which might be expected, supposing the heated volcanic rocks to be themselves the source of the high temperatur...

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Building and Ornamental Stones: Of Great Britain and Foreign Countries, Arranged According to Their Geological Distribution and Mineral Character, With Illustrations of Their Application in Ancient and Modern Structures The Council of the Royal College of Science, Dublin, having assented to a course of lectures to be delivered during the evenings of 1870-71, on Building and Ornamental Stones, I commenced the necessary preparation. Circumstances, however, occurred to prevent the delivery of the course; but while arranging the materials, the subject seemed to grow in interest, and ultimately developed into the form in which it is presented to the reader. During the progress of my investigations I made the discovery that there is no work in our language especially devoted to the subject itself; a discovery which is the ground on which I now come before the public. Building and Ornamental Stones are, it is true, to a certain extent described in many of the works on masonry, architecture, and engineering, but not in a complete manner, nor with much attempt at scientific arrangement.

The volume itself, indeed, would never have seen the light had it not been for a fortunate concourse of circumstances which may be, in confidence, revealed to the inquiring public. For some years past I had contemplated the preparation of a series of maps of the British I sles for the purpose of illustrating, as far as our knowledge and data would allow, the physical geography of successive geological periods; thus showing the changes of form through which our little isles have passed from their first genesis down to the period in which we have the happiness to live. I was deterred, however, by the view of the cost of publication. To carry out my intentions as I desired would require a series of chromo-lithographic plates, which would prove so heavy an expense at the outset that I feared no publisher would be sufl Sciently courageous to undertake the cost of publication. But what I despaired of having done through the ordinary channels I was enabled to accomplish with the aid of the Royal Dublin Society, in whose Transactions these little maps have already made their appearance. A fresh edition has been struck off for these pages, and it will give the reader some idea of the labour and cost of engraving when I state that no fewer than sixtytwo lithographic stones have been used in their preparation.
