About this book
Three of Darwin's geological books, drawn from his voyage on the Beagle, share this single volume with an editorial note and introductions by Professor Judd. The first, on coral reefs, describes atolls, barrier reefs and fringing reefs, with Keeling Atoll, the Maldives and the Great Chagos Bank as examples, and goes on to where reefs grow and how fast. The other two deal with volcanic islands and the geology of South America. The editor recommends them to general readers and geology students alike.
