Volcanoes: their Structure and Significance

Abstract

IN this work the author has succeeded in giving, within convenient limits, a clear and very readable account of the present state of vulcanological science. The work is not burdened with scientific details nor made unattractive by a too technical terminology; but it nevertheless contains a trustworthy discussion of the most recent researches of geologists, and their latest views upon questions connected with these very interesting natural phenomena.

Volcanoes: their Structure and Significance.
