Book Description
Excerpt from Bibliography of South African Geology, 1897: Being a List of Books, Papers and Reports on the Subject, Parts I and II This list of Papers on South African Geology was begun some three years ago for my own convenience, in connection with my work as Inspector of Water Drills in the Service of the Colonial Government. In May, 1893, the South African Philo sophical Society, on the motion of Dr Muir, resolved to me morialize the Government in regard to a Geological Survey, and suggested that, as a preliminary step, a Bibliography should be compiled. At first it was my intention to have the list published by the Philosophical Society, but when the Geological Commission was appointed in 1895, and shortly thereafter interested itself in the matter, it seemed more natural that the publication should take place under its auspices.
