Abstract
OF the many able geologists whom France has produced, few have had better opportunities of observation, or have availed themselves of them to better purpose, than the author of this monograph. Distinguished alike by his skill and long experience as a palæontologist, and by his extensive knowledge of practical geology, M. Coquand has laboured long and well, and far and wide—not only in Provence, and Italy, and Germany, but in far distant regions in Spain and Africa, in valleys and mountains never before resounding to the blows of the geologist's hammer.
