About the book >.>.> To one who early in life fell into the habit of pondering the causes of things and whose life has been mainly spent in close touch with the Lancashire sandhills it was a natural thing that his attention should be attracted by the fact that the origin and history of these sandhills had never yet received an entirely adequate explanation at all events in popularly presented form. Rivers prevailing winds and tidal currents are to be found at frequent intervals round the entire coast but on no section of coast round the British Isles is to be found an area of 22 square miles under sand along a similar length of shore-line. Examination of what was already known made clear the fact that much remained obscure. (SP)
