Excerpt from On Some Principles of Seismic Geology, And, the Geotectonic and Geodynamic Aspects of Calabria and Northeastern Sicily
That the most disastrous Calabrian earthquake for more than a century should have occurred while the author was on his way to the province, was for him a most unexpected good fortune; since he was thus enabled to note upon the ground the seismic and geologic correspondences.
The results of the study in so far as they relate to Calabria are given in the following monograph. The more general conclusions regarding the nature and cause of earthquakes which have been the direct result of the inquiry are here treated separately.
