HINTS FOR VISITORS 



Wbt ^jsle of TOt$t. 



As the tourists from Southampton, Gosport, 

 Portsmouth, &c, generally land either atRyde or 

 Cowes, the following Excursions are so arranged, 

 as to afford an explanation of the geological phe- 

 nomena, when proceeding from either of those 

 towns, to the eastern, or western, extremity of 

 the Island. But as the preliminary sketch of the 

 Geology of the South-east of England (p. 59), 

 conveys a general idea of the structure of the 

 country, it is immaterial at what place the observer 

 may commence his explorations. 



" Brannons Travelling Map of the Isle of Wight" 

 will be found very convenient for reference ; and 

 " Barbers Picturesque Illustrations,'''' which contains 

 numerous excellent engravings of the most inter- 

 esting scenery, will serve as a beautiful illustrative 

 Atlas to our geological descriptions.
