Synopsis

This book is an extensive, illustrated geological survey of Java and Madura. Published in 1896, it was the result of six years of fieldwork and two and a half years compiling and drawing maps and profiles, microscopic analysis and writing by the author. It is a seminal work of reference for geologists, being the first attempt to describe the island's geology in detail. As well as geological maps, it includes detailed appendices on minerals and fossils. The book has been reprinted several times and remains a valuable resource for understanding one of the most seismically active parts of the world.
