    Scarce copy of the Geology section of the Natural History Museum's series of scientific reports which resulted from the Terra Nova expedition, with two manuscript letters by Raymond Priestley. The parts of the first volume were issued between 1914 and 1924, alongside the Zoology and Botany volumes, with the second volume coming later between 1954 and 1964. Sir Raymond Edward Priestley (1886-1974) became a renowned geologist through his participation in Shackleton's Nimrod Expedition (1907â"09) and Scott's Terra Nova Expedition (1910â"1913). The two manuscript letters were written by Priestley to Walter Campbell Smith (1887-1988), the assistant in the minerals department of the Natural History Museum tasked with working on the Terra Nova collection. Priestley's first letter, sent in August 1963, commends Smith's work for giving the science of the Terra Nova 'a real place in the sun', and the second letter, sent in February of 1964, describes his joy in reading the completed second volume which was exclusively Smith's undertaking. Both letters contain a warmth of friendship between the two celebrated scientists. The full titles and credits of the parts are as follows: Vol I. No. 1: Antarctic Fossil Plants by A. C. Seward, pp.1-49, 1914. Vol I. No. 2: Fish-Remains from the Upper Old Red Sandstone of Granite Harbour, Antarctica by Arthur Smith Woodward, pp.51-62, 1921. Vol I.
