III.—Narrative of a Geological Journey through Russia

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

The meeting of the International Geological Congress at St. Petersburg towards the end of August last year was about as successfulinpromoting (he main objects the Congress has in view as any of its predecessors. There was a marked absence of anything like a serious radical programme, and in that sense the meeting may be said to have been progressive. The majority of the papers read were commonplace, the few exceptions being mostly in the domain of petrology. Every geologist who attended the meeting was grateful to the Organizing Committee for getting together such a nice little exhibition of specimens, maps, and models for the occasion. It was full of interest.
