Excerpt from Alphabet of Geology and Elements of Mineralogy: A Treatise Designed for Students at School or at Home, and Especially Adapted to the Advanced Classes of the Common Schools
The climate, soil and productions of the different countries are so varied, that we naturally expect the rocks to differ, but we find Wonderful uniformity everywhere. We find the upheaved granite and all other primary rocks the same in Europe, Asia and Africa, as in America, and the deposits of the precious metals are about equally accessible to all the inhabitants of the globe, iron, coal and the other useful minerals are very abundant.
