The astronomical theory, which we will first examine, was first
enunciated by Mr. Croll, following a suggestion of the
astronomer Adhemer. Mr. Croll’s views were set forth in many
able papers, and finally gathered into a volume entitled
“Climate and Time in their Geological Relation.” The ablest
defense of these views is that by Mr. James Geikie, in his
works “The Great Ice Age,” and “Prehistoric Europe.”

doubtful. He refers to the date of the Glacial Age in the
Southern Hemisphere.
