简介
Winchester tells how canal digger William Smith noticed the layers in the soil he was digging, and different fossils in each layer, and eventually created the first geological map, of England, Wales, and part of Scotland, in 1815. He also explains how the map and the concepts behind it changed the western view of history and the earth. He includes a glossary without pronunciation guides. Annotation c.
