Synopsis

Excerpt from An Historical, Geological, and Descriptive View of the Coal Trade of the North of England: Comprehending Its Rise, Progress, Present State, and Future Prospects; To Which Are Appended a Concise Notice of the Peculiarities of Certain Coal Fields in Great Britain and Ireland; And Also a General Description of the Coal Mines of Belgium

The subject upon which I have undertaken to write, stands pre-eminent, in a commercial point of view, in respect to the national resources of Great Britain and it is chiefly to the developement of this portion of those resources, that I have devoted the following pages. At the same time, it may not be irrelevant that I enter upon the important subjects of the nature of coal, its geological position, and its chemical composition.
