Abstract
HAD the story of the Deluge a foundation in fact; in other words, is it a record of some inundation which affected a considerable area of the earth's surface? This is the question which Prof. Prestwich sets himself to answer in the small volume before us—a volume which combines a paper read to the Victoria Institute with some of the material communicated to the Royal and the Geological Societies.
On Certain Phenomena belonging to the Close of the last Geological Period, and on their bearing upon the Tradition of the Flood.
