Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from La Finlande Et les Finlandais: Itin�raire Historique Et Descriptif
Partout le plateau finlandais porte les marques de son anciennet�. Le granit et les schistes cristallins forment presque exclusivement la charpente du sol. Les roches fr�quemment polies et stri�es et les grands blocs erratiques, nulle part plus nombreux qu'en Fin lande, rappellent l'�poque recul�e du pass� o� le pays tout entier �tait couvert de glaciers, qui, en glissant lentement vers le sud, ont d�pos� sur leurs bords les vastes moraines qui sillonnent la Finlande. Jusque dans la couche de terre v�g�tale, on trouve partout de ces fragments de rochers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
