Excerpt from A Bibliography of Indian Geology and Physical Geography: With an Annotated Index of Minerals of Economic Value Some time after my retirement from India in 1911, the Director of the Geological Survey, Mr. Hayden, suggested that a work on the same lines, but dealing with the whole of India, would be useful, and asked me to undertake it; at the same time obtaining the sanction of the Government of India to its publication when complete. It was recognised, however. That if every branch of the subject were included in the notes, as I attempted in the case of Burma, the work would entail an enormous expenditure of time, and would be too bulky for ease of reference, especially by those who are concerned with the geology only in so far as it relates to the development of the mineral wealth of the country; though a subject-index to the voluminous literature on Indian geology and physical geography has long been needed. While the Bibliography, therefore, includes not only publications deal ing with geology and the sciences intimately connected with it, but also with physical geography, topography, and in some instances with botany and travel, - where these contain information that may be of use to the geologist, - the notes which form the second portion of the present work are concerned only with the minerals of economic value.
