The Work of Rain and Rivers
Originally published during the early part of the twentieth century, the Cambridge Manuals of Science and Literature were designed to provide concise introductions to a broad range of topics. They were written by experts for the general reader and combined a comprehensive approach to knowledge with an emphasis on accessibility. T. G. Bonney's The Work of Rain and Rivers was first published in 1912 and reprinted in 1928. It offers a brief yet clear account of the way that rain and rivers act to change the landscape.
