Relics From The Wreck Of A Former World

Relics From The Wreck Of A Former World: Or Splinters Gathered On The Shores Of A Turbulent Planet is a book written by Thomas Milner in 1847. The book is a collection of essays that explore the geological history of the earth and the evolution of life on it. Milner examines the fossils and geological formations that he has encountered during his travels, and uses them to piece together a picture of the earth's past. He also discusses the theories of other scientists and philosophers, and offers his own interpretations of the evidence. The book is written in a poetic and philosophical style, and Milner's love of nature and his sense of wonder at the world around him are evident throughout. Relics From The Wreck Of A Former World is a fascinating glimpse into the early days of geological study, and a tribute to the beauty and complexity of the natural world.Proving To A Demonstration, The Vast Antiquity Of The Earth, And The Existence Of Animal Life, Of The Most Fantastic Shapes, And The Most Elegant Colors.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
