Excerpt from Petroleum Geology of Wyoming NO attempt has been made to refer by footnotes to the many geologists who have worked and written upon different areas in the State. A bibliography is given elsewhere, and the writer acknowledges his indebtedness to each and every writer and work in the list. When the writer began his geologic work in Wyo ming in 1904, the published data were very meager. The surveys of Hayden and King covered the south half of the State in a reconnaissance way, but were not, for obvious reasons, tied to the public land survey. During the past dozen years the work of the United States Geological Survey on coal, oil and phosphate has given us many splendid detailed surveys of different areas within the State. This volume, especially the accompanying map, could not be compiled, were it not for these Government reports.
