Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Earthquakes and Volcanoes: Hot Springs Earthquakes and volcanoes are among the most frequent and terrible phenomena which affect the physical condition of our globe. Having seen so many and varied Opinions and theories concerning the cause, the impression came upon me, that surely, with all our boasted learning, and all our recent discoveries in physical, electrical, magnetical and astronomical science, a correct theory could be established beyond a reasonable doubt. I am now writing thoroughly imbued with that impression. I will say, however, that I do not intend to leave God out of the creation as most scientists do. It simply remains for us to discover the laws by which He created the heavens and the earth, and the power by which He controls them in the hollow of His hand.

Download or read book Earthquakes, Volcanoes, and Mountain-Building written by J. D. Whitney and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Earthquakes, Volcanoes, and Mountain-Building: Three Articles Published in the North American Review, 1869-1871 The titles placed at the head of this article indicate three as characteristic books as could he selected from among the mass of publications devoted either to earthquakes alone or to earthquakes and volcanoes conjointly. In the last one on the list we have a fair specimen of a class of books which are becoming quite common, which mostly originate in France, are translated in England, and are reprinted here, and which, while pretending to be scientific, are, in reality, as far from having any claim to that character as possible. The principle on which these books are got up seems to be this: A number of showily designed and elegantly engraved wood-cuts are manufactured, and then some scientific penny-a-liner is hired to put together a text to match the pictures, no time being allowed for doing the work properly, even if the person selected were competent, which is rarely the case, the dominating idea being, evidently, to produce something which a not very critical public shall be tempted into buying, on account of the beauty of its mechanical execution, and with the incidental advantage of getting something scientific into the bargain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hawaii and Its Volcanoes It is hoped that this treatise will contribute materially to the solution of the Volcanic Problem. A deep-seated source of the heat seems to be required, which acts upon water, converting it into super-heated steam. Whether this moisture comes chiefly from surface streams, the ocean, or from the original interior magma of the earth is not so clear; but its effect in urging liquid ma terial upward cannot be questioned. Our efforts are rewarded by the abundant demonstration of this upward pressure. How far this same energy will explain tectonic earthquakes and the secular elevation of large terrestrial areas is likewise a matter for further reflection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from San Francisco's Great Disaster: A Full Account of the Recent Terrible Destruction of Life and Property by Earthquake, Fire and Volcano in California and at Vesuvius The world seems secure on her foundations, the heavens eternal, the universe unshakable, man supreme, until, in one of these dread hours, the narrow border between order and chaos, between law and anarchy in nature's realm, ends man's dream of supremacy, ends his faith that the universe is unshakable, that the heavens are eternal, that Old Earth is secure on her foundations. Such a revelation is the destruction of San Francisco. It is not alone the posses sion of the people of the day on which the awful visita tion has fallen, but the property of all the ages, a pointed lesson of the mutability of the finite, a grim fable whose moral points to the realms of the Divme and infinite. The lesson is for all peoples, everywhere, for who can tell where next nature will run riot? Who knows that the next out break of elemental anarchy will confine devastation to a single locality? Who can give security that the globe in its entirety will not crumble into dust when next the natural law is violated?

Book Synopsis The Complete Story of the Italian Earthquake Horror (Classic Reprint) by : James Martin Miller
Download or read book The Complete Story of the Italian Earthquake Horror (Classic Reprint) written by James Martin Miller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Story of the Italian Earthquake Horror The first ten years of the Twentieth Century will go down in history as the Earthquake and Volcano Decade. On May 8th, 1902, thirty thousand human lives at St. Pierre, under the shadow of Mount Pelee, were snuffed out of existence in thirty seconds. When the author of this book, ten days afterwards, visited the scene at St. Pierre, it was evident that not one living, breathing creature, including the domestic animals and fowls, had escaped instant death. Everything, buildings and all, given form by man, had been completely annihilated. At the same instant, almost seventy miles across the West Indian waters, the fury of the awful flow of molten lava destroyed two thousand lives on the British isle of St. Vincent. The Charleston and St. Louis Cyclones, the Johnstown Flood, and the Galveston Tidal Wave of the fifteen years before the dawning of the Twentieth Century were dwarfed into insignificance, in the loss of human beings, by the Martinique Disaster. Closely following the annihilation of St. Pierre came the destruction of San Francisco; Kingston, Jamaica; Valparaiso, Chile, and the awful tidal wave at Hong Kong. At each of these horrors of Nature the world was dazed. But, in the disaster occurring in Italy during the Holiday Season of 1908, every man and woman of the earth were turned from the festivities of the season into deepest gloom and sorrow, with thoughts of practical charity, sympathy and help for their stricken Italian brothers and sisters. Individuals, societies and nations united in one grand common effort for immediate succor for the stricken-down Italians and Sicilians. Our own great navy hastened, at the finish of the famous cruise around the world, to save and preserve life and to assist in burying the scores of thousands of the dead.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Earthquakes: Their Origin and Phenomena The above caption, will doubtless be received by many with surprise and incredulity, yet it will be remembered that nearly every great physicist, who has touched upon the subject of late years has suggested that the earth is made up of the debris of comets and meteors. Mr. Russell, a late writer upon lakes, assigns as their origin, earthquakes and meteors. Here the writer has advanced one long step' further and shows you that earthquakes are caused by meteors, and any reader who wishes to inform' himself, may by means of what is given here with assure himself of such fact. It is not the purpose of the writer to demonstrate matters fully herein, as the reader may do that, but to inform those residing on earthquake belts of the true cause of the pheno mena, to describe and explain it briefly, in order that more careful observations may be made of phenomena as it has been presented in the past or may be noted in the future. Through ignorance of such origin, there is no account of any earthquake, that does not leave much further information to be desired and far more watchful, accurate and intelligent observations.

Nevertheless a system of weather forecast which would enable the authorities to learn, for ten years ahead if they wished, what the extent and duration of rainfall and other meteorological conditions would be week by week, and, as experience grew, even day by day, in every part of the Empire, could not fail to be of almost inestimable value. This knowledge would impose a great responsibility upon the authorities for the provision of means to rightly use the opportunities provided by Nature, and must necessarily lead to the adoption by them of thorough and much-needed preventive measures.
