George M. Dawson’s notebook

In addition to recording data in their notebooks with mathematical accuracy, geologists did sketches of the regions they were studying. This is a sketchbook used by George M. Dawson during geological surveys in British Columbia in 1877. There are dozens of similar books in the archival documents of the Geological Survey of Canada.
