Dura Den: A Monograph Of The Yellow Sandstone And Its Remarkable Fossil Remains is a book written by John Anderson and originally published in 1859. The book is a comprehensive study of the geological formation of Dura Den, a gorge located in Scotland, and the fossils found within its yellow sandstone. Anderson examines the various layers of rock and sediment that make up the gorge, as well as the different types of fossils that can be found there, including fish, plants, and insects. He also provides detailed illustrations and descriptions of the fossils, along with information on their geological significance. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the geology and paleontology of Scotland, as well as the history of scientific study in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
