Description

Calcutta [Kolkata], The Asiatic Society of Bengal, 1853. 8vo (22.8 x 15.0 cm). 157 pp. [numbered 179-335]; one plate, one large, folded map. Original printed wrappers. = An important early contribution to the geology of India. Written by the British surgeon, geologist and zoologist (specializing in sponges) Henry John Carter (1813-1895). Apparently, it was also published separately, in 1857. This is the whole Journal No. XIX (Vol. V) of the Society's Bombay Branch, including some unrelated information and smaller papers. Uncut; therefore edges a little bit worn and frayed. Wrappers toned; otherwise a very good, unmarked copy. Not in Ward and Carozzi.
