Timothy Abbott Conrad (1803-1877) was an American Geologist who also studied paleontology, especially shells of the Tertiary and Cretaceous formations. Although from New Jersey, he was one of the New York State geologists and traveled throughout the Southeast. Although the focus of this book is on his work in Alabama, four text sketch maps show his travels through North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. The folding color map is a copy of the first Geological Map of Alabama, originally published in 1835.
