Bakewell's book (1st ed. 1813, 5th ed. 1838) was probably the most widely read of the British elementary geology textbook during the early 1800's; Charles Lyell was drawn to geology as a result of reading the book. This is the 2nd edition of 1815, and is derived for the most part from Google Books image pdf file. It also includes a glossary of important geologic terms ('Vocabulary of Terms').
