  7. Questions in the Field • I have not one clear idea about cleavage, stratification, lines of upheaval. – I have no books, which tell me much and what they do I cannot apply to what I see. In consequence I draw my own conclusions, and mostly gloriously ridiculous ones they are.” Burkhardt pg.34

  8. Asking for Help • “Very many thanks for your two notes, and especially for Maury’s map: also for Books which you are going to lend me.” Burkhardt 157 • “When I return to England, you [Henslow] will have some hard work in winnowing my Geology; what little I know, I have learnt in such a curious fashion, that I often feel very doubtful about the number of grains: whatever number, they may turn out, I have enjoyed extreme pleasure in collecting them.” Burkhardt 34
