'Principles of Geology' by Charles Lyell was first published in 1830-1833 in 3 volumes, and has been referred to as the most important book in the history of geology. This one is the 9th ed (1853) published in one volume. I'm indebted to Project Gutenberg for the outstanding HTML file that I've modified in various ways including an external one-level TOC.
