The author examines the age of the London Clay and its relationship to other Tertiary systems in Hampshire and Paris. Prestwich’s book provides a detailed analysis of the fossils found in the London Clay and their significance in determining the age of the formation. He also compares the London Clay to other Tertiary systems in Europe, particularly those found in Hampshire and Paris.
