Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Geological Map of the United States, and the British Provinces of North America: With an Explanatory Text, Geological Sections, and Plates of the Fossils Which Characterize the Formations The American Continent, the New World of Columbus, of Cabot, of Cartier, and other navigators, is to the eye of a geologist more ancient than Europe. It had already nearly its present form, while Europe was buried beneath the ocean, and mostly only represented by some scattered islands, in the space from England and Spain up to the confines of Russian Asia. The places where now are situated the cities of Washington, Quebec, New York, Boston, Cincinnati and St. Louis, had already emerged from the bosom of the ocean; while London, Paris, Brussels, Vienna and Berlin, remained buried for thousands of years longer under the waters of the sea, which then washed the base of the rocks that at this day support the Capitol, the monuments Of Wolfe and Montcalm, and the astronomical Observatory Of Cincinnati.
