Item description from seller

Octavo. x, 157 pages, indexed. Hardcover bound in dark grey cloth with cover designs and rules in gilt. This is an EX-LIBRARY copy with full markings. Moderate wear to the binding. A sound copy with secure inner hinges. COMPLETE with the folding color map and the folding chart. Map and chart are in good condition. Text has a couple of blind stamps but otherwise is clean and sound. Timothy Abbott Conrad (1803-1877) was an American Geologist who also studied paleontology, especially shells of the Tertiary and Cretaceous formations. Although from New Jersey, he was one of the New York State geologists and traveled throughout the Southeast. Although the focus of this book is on his work in Alabama, four text sketch maps show his travels through North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. The folding color map is a copy of the first Geological Map of Alabama, originally published in 1835.

Pages Past is a small used and antiquarian bookshop holding 10,000-15,000 volumes. We are located a few blocks from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Most of our books are hardback, although we have a few bookcases of paperbacks with recent fiction and classic literature represented. We also have a fairly good collection of Eastern Philosophy & Religion (Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism) as well as New Age. Most of these are recent paperbacks in nice condition. We have a good collection of antiquarian books in the fields of Americana, old leather bound books, and early religious and scholarly books. Shop hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays. We're closed on Sundays. We are always interested in buying quality books in very good condition.…
