Abstract
THIS is a pleasantly written personal history of a well-known man, and as such interesting to his friends who survive him and to the numerous friends of his friends who have passed away but are spoken of in connection with him. Scientific inquiry, however, filled so large a part of his life, and he did so much for the elucidation of certain branches of geological inquiry, that the story cannot fail to be more or less an account of the progress of research along those lines to which he devoted himself.
Life and Letters of Sir Joseph Prestwich.
Written and edited by his Wife. Pp. xiv + 444. (Edinburgh and London: Wm. Blackwood and Sons, 1899.)
