Geology and Revelation / or, the Ancient History of the Earth, considered in the geological facts and revealed religion.

The work surveys established geological observations and theories and assesses their relation to revealed religion, aiming to demonstrate compatibility between natural history and Scripture. It summarizes strata, fossils, and methods used to interpret Earth's antiquity, cites leading authorities, and employs illustrations to clarify physical evidence. The author maintains that empirical facts cannot truly contradict divine revelation and cautions against insisting on rigid, literal readings of sacred texts when interpretation is uncertain. A contributed chapter on cosmogony is included, and the whole is presented in accessible language intended to guide clergy and educated readers toward a measured reconciliation of science and faith.
