Book Description
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Boston Society of Natural History, 1876-1878, Vol. 19 The limestones of the Levis division contain a very abundant fauna described by Billings, which was shown by him to belong to an horizon near that of the Calciferous and Chazy divisions of the New York series. It is this fauna which has been looked upon as indicating elsewhere the presence of the Quebec group. These three divisions at Quebec have a measured thickness of over five thousand feet, and are found dipping at a high angle to the southeast. The whole was described by Logan as having originally occupied a posi tion conformably beneath the Trenton limestone of the vicinity, and as having been brought to the surface by a great break and uplift of the strata.

Book Description
The bestselling author of In the Heart of the Sea, Mayflower, and In the Hurricane's Eye tells the story of the Boston battle that ignited the American Revolution, in this "masterpiece of narrative and perspective." (Boston Globe) In the opening volume of his acclaimed American Revolution series, Nathaniel Philbrick turns his keen eye to pre-Revolutionary Boston and the spark that ignited the American Revolution. In the aftermath of the Boston Tea Party and the violence at Lexington and Concord, the conflict escalated and skirmishes gave way to outright war in the Battle of Bunker Hill. It was the bloodiest conflict of the revolutionary war, and the point of no return for the rebellious colonists. Philbrick gives us a fresh view of the story and its dynamic personalities, including John Adams, Samuel Adams, John Hancock, Paul Revere, and George Washington. With passion and insight, he reconstructs the revolutionary landscape—geographic and ideological—in a mesmerizing narrative of the robust, messy, blisteringly real origins of America.
