The Geological Evidence of the Antiquity of Man
The Geological Evidence of the Antiquity of Man
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Originally published just four years after Darwin’s Origin of Species, this 1863 work by an eminent geologist remains among the best accounts of an important branch of knowledge. The majority of the text offers an empirical statement of the evidence available in the mid-nineteenth century regarding human existence during prehistoric times. The rest of the book considers the connection between this evidence and Darwinian theory. The author’s observations are rooted in his extensive field work throughout Europe and North America. A work of remarkable insight, it continues to rank among the classics. 1914 ed. 58 figures.
