"This volume investigates meteorites and various aspects of mineralogy and palaeontology, including salt, coal, metals, and various gems. Although written for the general public, it is a valuable scientific contribution for its comparisons of mid-seventeenth century theories to the ancient explanations of minerals" (Curtis Schuh's Bibliography of Mineralogy). Du Hamel was a French cleric and natural philosopher, and the first secretary of the Academie Royale des Sciences. - Contemporary vellum, penned title on spine. Binding slightly stained.
