Excerpt from Manual of Mineralogy, or the Natural History of the Mineral Kingdom: Containing a General Introduction to the Science, and Descriptions of the Separate Species, Including the More Recent Discoveries and Chemical AnalysesIn a work of such extent, containing so many numbers, and in which almost every word expresses a definite fact, errors can scarcely be avoided. The Author has endeavoured to diminish their number by careful and repeated revision, and trusts that those overlooked may be found comparatively few, and not such as to interfere with the utility of the volume. He would gladly hope that, with all its defects, the work may, in some measure aid in promoting the study of this branch of science, and in extending the knowledge of those wonders of Creative Wisdom with which the Mineral Kingdom, like every other portion of Nature, so richly abounds.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
