Abstract
I DESIRE through the medium of your columns to call attention to the fact that most of the admirable memoirs of the Geological Survey appear to be out of print. A week or two ago I ordered a number of these publications and was informed that at least half of them are out of print. Prof. Ramsay's “Geology of North Wales” is in this category and the fact is stated in the printed list, but in a letter recently received from the professor he informs that the work is being reprinted, and is expected to be published about the middle of next year. Without, in the absence of information, desiring to attach blame to any one, I shall be glad to know the reason why works admittedly of the highest value should have been permitted to fall into such apparent neglect.
