The Elements of Geology; Adapted to the Use of Schools and Colleges

In 'The Elements of Geology; Adapted to the Use of Schools and Colleges', Justin R. Loomis presents a comprehensive overview of the principles of geology, perfect for students studying the subject. The book includes enough important facts to allow learners to come to their own conclusions, while avoiding excessive detail found in other works. Loomis devotes a chapter to geological changes, noting that these processes are always ongoing simultaneously in nature. The book includes questions for teachers to use during recitations, but Loomis encourages students to analyze the sections themselves for a more complete understanding of the subject.
