A System of Geology: With a Theory of the Earth, and an Explanation of Its Connexion With the Sacred Records; Volume 1

By John MacCulloch

"A System of Geology, Volume 1" by John Macculloch presents a comprehensive overview of geological science in the early 19th century. Subtitled "With a Theory of the Earth, and an Explanation of Its Connexion With the Sacred Records," the book reflects the era's attempts to reconcile emerging scientific understandings of the Earth's history with religious narratives. Macculloch's work offers insights into the development of geological thought, exploring various geological formations and processes known at the time.

This volume is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of science, particularly the history of geology and the complex interplay between scientific inquiry and religious belief during a period of significant intellectual change. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the scientific debates and perspectives that shaped our modern understanding of the Earth.
