Table of Contents:
I. The surface features of Egypt, their determining causes and relation to geological structure.
II. The fundamental Pre-Cambrian rocks of Egypt and the Sudan; their distribution age and character.
pt. 1. The metamorphic rocks, with preface by H. H. Thomas.
pt. 2. The later plutonic and minor intrusive rocks, with a special chapter dealing with dynamical geology (cataract structure and contact metamorphism) and the age of the Pre-Cambrian rocks in Egypt.
