The search for minerals was the driving focus behind Duncan Derry's chosen career. Working with some of the most successful mining men and international companies of the 20th century, he enjoyed a fascinating life. Few geologists travelled the world as extensively for over half a century as did he. No others recorded their travels through wide-ranging diaries supplemented by sketches. Mining Exploration: The Life and Times of Duncan R. Derry describes this life and provides extracts of his diaries and many of the related sketches.
