BY THE 



REV. H. N. HUTCHINSON, B.A., F.G.S., 



AUTHOR OF " THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE EARTH." 



OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. 



"This work belongs to that useful class whose intention is to arouse 

 interest in the works of nature, and quicken the faculty of observation." 



Manchester Guardian. 



"It tells in the pleasantest way the first things that geologists learn and 

 teach crabbedly about the heaving up of hills, the wearing of them down by 

 the weather, the breaking out of volcanoes, and kindred matters." Scotsman. 



"The author is a man of wide geological and physiographical reading, 

 possessed of the gift of clearly interpreting the writers he reads, and of 

 reproducing their facts and conclusions in easily understood and even attractive 

 language." Science Gossip. 



"It will be read with pleasure and profit by the tourist who likes to know 

 just enough about the sundry points of interest connected with the scene of 

 his wanderings to make the enjoyment of his outing intelligent." Nature. 



" Mr. Hutchinson's book deals with the slow moulding of mountain forms 

 by streams and by weathering, and with the forces by which mountains have 

 been upheaved, and will double the pleasure of a mountain trip. It is of a 

 handy and portable size, and is illustrated with several excellent reproductions 

 of photographs by the late Mr. W. Donkin." Knowledge. 



"A charmingly written and beautifully illustrated account of the making 

 of the mountains. An admirable gift book." Yorkshire Post. 



"This is a popular and well illustrated account of mountains and how they 

 were made. The illustrations are especially excellent, being reproductions of 

 photographs taken by the late Mr. W. Donkin, Messrs. Walentine and Sons 

 (Dundee), and Mr. Wilson (Aberdeen). Mr. Hutchinson writes interestingly, 

 and evidently knows geology and physiography." -Journal of Education.
