Scenery and Geology in County Antrim (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Scenery and Geology in County Antrim As we said at the outset, man now desires to know he enquires about the inhabitants of a country, about their history, their antiquities, their art. The fascination of such subjects has led thousands of travellers to Venice, to Florence, and to Rome 5 and they have crossed the Alps with scarcely a suspicion that the most wonderful, the most far-reaching history of all lay written in the rocks of that gigantic mountain-chain. Now, however, the enjoyment of scenery is leading us to ask about the history and the origin of the rocks them selves we see hills of a particular type, and wonder what is the cause of their special outlines we gather specimens as souvenirs, and find that in them we may read some of the most remarkable changes that the country round us has undergone. The term Geology may alarm some people, but everyone can be in his way a geological observer. The British Isles, with their remarkable variety of rocks and fossiliferous deposits, form everywhere a tempting field but it can be asserted with confidence that no county of the three king doms offers so many geological features, displayed with such clearness and picturesqueness, as does the beautiful County of Antrim.
