Excerpt from The Scenery of Scotland Viewed in Connexion With Its Physical Geology
No one may venture to write on the subjects discussed in this volume without first studying what has been written upon them by Professor Ramsay. To his papers, but still more to many long dis eussions with him by the fireside and among the hills, and to the stimulus from contact with a mind so original in conception, and so marked for its faculty of grasping at once the details and the broad bearings of a question, it is a pleasure to express my obligations.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fresh perspective on the origins of the Scottish landscape. The author argues that while the mountains and valleys were formed by geological events, they have been shaped over time by the actions of rain, rivers, springs, and frost. The author takes the reader on a journey through the Scottish Highlands, describing the impact of these forces on the landscape and how they have created the scenery we see today. The book also explores the role of glaciers and icebergs in shaping the land, and the author draws on the work of previous geologists and scientists to support his theories. The author concludes by reflecting on the significance of these insights for understanding the history of the Scottish landscape and the forces that have shaped it.
