Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a wealth of geological research conducted by the author during his travels across eastern Asia, most particularly China, Mongolia, and Japan. The observations made during these journeys provide a unique and detailed insight into the geological history of the region. The au…thor's work represents an important piece of scholarship, since relatively little geological research had been conducted on this scale in the region prior to his travels. He was able to establish that the Devonian limestone and Chinese Coal measures were the predominant rocks in eastern Asia, and that the region's Mesozoic and Cenozoic formations were likely absent or underdeveloped. Specific examples are provided to illustrate these findings, including the author's documentation of the composition and thickness of limestone deposits in the Yangtze Valley. The author's observations and deductions remain relevant to geologists seeking a greater understanding of this geologically diverse region. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
