Excerpt from Valleys: And Their Relation to Fissures, Fractures, and Faults Physical geologists are at variance as to the forces which have formed the present features of the earth's surface. It seems to have been formerly a very general belief that the Shapes of the ground are more Or less due to movements in the crust of the earth which have Opened cracks and fissures, elevating some portions and depressing others, and that to these movements, combined with marine denudation, the features of the surface of the earth are due. Hutton seems to have been the first to broach the theory that the surface has been principally sculptured by meteoric abrasion; and now most of the working geologists in Great Britain seem inclined to dis regard unduly every other kind of action. During many years of geological research, we have noted certain relations between the different kinds of Shrinkage fissures, breaks, lake-basins, valleys, and other features of the earth; and although formerly we accepted in a great measure the theories of the subaerialists, we are now led to believe that the different denudants must act in combination - each separately being incapable of doing much work.
