Publisher's Synopsis
""Correspondence On The Subject Of The Geological Map Of India"" is a book written by George Bellas Greenough in 1857. The book is a collection of letters exchanged between Greenough and various officials of the East India Company regarding the creation of a geological map of India. The letters provide insights into the challenges faced by Greenough in mapping the Indian subcontinent, including the lack of accurate data and the difficulties of working in a foreign land. The book also sheds light on the political and economic factors that influenced the mapping of India, as well as the role of science in the colonial enterprise. The book is a valuable resource for historians, geologists, and anyone interested in the history of India and the development of geological science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
