Book Description
Excerpt from History of the Extinct Volcanos of the Basin of Neuwied, on the Lower Rhine My other recommendation is a very general one. It is not possible, without considerable inconvenience, to examine the vol canoe of the basin of Neuwied in the exact order in which I have described them - but I would certainly advise the studentto ad here as far as it is possible to this order, which is compendiously set forth in the table of contents. Nothing, for instance, will be found to more perplex the mind of the aspirant, than by devot ing his earliest attention to the volcanic products of the Laacher see, the origin and relations of which cannot be well comprehend ed, until the trachytic eruptions of Rieden and its vicinity have afl'orded him a preliminary and profitable instruction.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1832 edition. Excerpt: ...from the central aperture of Laach; Zdly, That, during subsequent convulsions, by which, as I have explained, (page 100, ) the lacustrine and tufaceous strata of Obermennig underwent a remarkable dip of 22 to the north north-east, this ancient rent might have been still further widened; and, 3dly, That even a still later widening of this ancient rent might have been coincident with the ascent of a column of lava. That such a view is not chimerical, will be seen in a future page, where it can be absolutely shown, that, near the close of the volcanic explosions of the basin of Neuwied, the latest convul sion of this district still further affected the presumed fissure of Mennig, even after it had been filled with congealed lava, so as to cause the imbedded volcanic mass to separate into a yawning cross rent. The form, extent, and even direction of the original fissure, owing to the lava which in ascending through it appears to have boiled over its sides, must necessarily be involved in obscurity. Its direction was, I suspect, from north to south, in which case it could scarcely have been much less than two English miles in extent. To the centre of it the present site of the village of Niedermennig may be probably referred. We must, lastly, conceive of this fissure, through which the lava of Mennig from focal depths was doomed to ascend, as having previously contributed to form one of the deepest portions of the basin of Neuwied. At length, however, as the lava in its ascent beneath the waters of the lake was extravasated, it would breadthen itself from the sidesof the fissure in every direction, giving rise to a submerged lava field, which has varied in its width from one to two miles. The depth of the lava, in the site where it may be..
