Bibliography of the Geology and Mineral Resources of California to December 31, L930 (Classic Reprint)

Solon Shedd
4.9/5 (15056 ratings)
Description:Excerpt from Bibliography of the Geology and Mineral Resources of California to December 31, L930 This bulletin represents the results of about four years of careful and methodical labor on the part of its author, Dr. Solon Shedd, who has devoted his time and thought to assembling into one volume this vast number of references, all dealing with the geology and mineral resources of California. The work is a noble contribution not only to science but to industry as well. His compensation has been in the satis faction of performing a useful and lasting work. We owe to him our deepest gratitude for this scholarly and practical volume. The part that the Geologic Branch of the California State Division of Mines has taken in the preparation of this bulletin has been in sup plying clerical assistance as well as attending to the publication of the work. Assistance has been secured directly from a large number of authors who have contributed to the geology of California, and many other individuals who have been interested in the undertaking. The present volume represents a second edition so far as the bibliographic section is concerned. In addition, publications for the year 1930 are included and the entire work is indexed according to subject matter. Before publication of even the preliminary issue, the galley proofs were cut and submitted to the individual authors, where they could be found, for correction and emendation of the proof. A bibliography of this sort, beginning with the first explorations of which we have any record in this State, calls forth an interest in the history of those who first made geologic discoveries in the region. To go into this historical phase very deeply, one could write many volumes. A summary chapter, Pioneers in the Geology of Cali fornia, by Dr. Frank Marion Anderson, appears in this bulletin and should serve as an introduction to the earlier contributors to the science in California, who have since passed away, but who have left monuments of attainment. To Doctor Anderson we here acknowledge appreciation of his kindness in contributing the historical chapter.
