Descrizione
First edition, 4to, [2], viii, [2], iii, [1], 76, [2, advert]pp., folding engraved plate of strata with with key leaf, old signature of G. A. Garton [?], one plate of the first vase made of Blue John, orig. printed boards, rebacked. White Watson (1760-1835), sculptor, marble-worker, and mineral-dealer. Lived at Bakewell, Derbyshire, where travellers visited his museum-shop. Here, in this rare publication, Watson here describes ìDerbyshire strata, with a section across them. The section is nearly two feet long; the general broad anticlinal structure is well shown, but the vertical scale is so enormously exaggerated as to distort the natural arrangement.îóChallinor.
