[316] Essai géologique sur l'Écosse (Paris; no date, but probably about 1820). He acknowledges his indebtedness to Jameson, whose demonstrations of the geology of the Edinburgh district he partly reproduced in his book. Jameson's early writings in the Wernerian Memoirs and in separate works were mere mineralogical or "geognostical" descriptions. His later lectures became more valuable but were never published, save indirectly in so far as they influenced the opinions of his pupils who published writings on the same subjects. See, for instance, Hay Cunningham's Geology of the Lothians, p. 59, footnote. Compare an article on Boué, Edinburgh Review for May 1823 (vol. xxxviii. p. 413).
