Britain's Structure and Scenery
By STAMP, L. Dudley
Published by Collins: London 1947

" Sir Laurence Dudley Stamp's Britain's Structure and Scenery (Collins, 1947) presents a lucid exploration of the geological and geographical forces that have shaped the British Isles. Written in the accessible yet scholarly style typical of Stamp's work, the book examines how ancient rock formations, tectonic movements, and glacial action combined to create Britain's distinctive physical landscape. It is richly illustrated with diagrams and photographs that trace the evolution of mountains, valleys, and coastlines, grounding complex geological concepts in the observable features of the countryside.

Beyond geology, Stamp explores how Britain's physical structure has influenced its scenery, climate, agriculture, and settlement patterns, linking natural science to cultural geography. First published as part of the esteemed Collins New Naturalist Series, this volume remains an important contribution to mid-20th-century landscape studies. It will particularly appeal to admirers of British geography, natural history enthusiasts, and collectors of the early New Naturalist series."
