Originally published during the early part of the twentieth century, the Cambridge Manuals of Science and Literature were designed to provide concise introductions to a broad range of topics. They were written by experts for the general reader and combined a comprehensive approach to knowledge with an emphasis on accessibility. The Natural History of Coal by E. A. Newell Arber was first published in 1910. The volume presents a variety of information on the geology and paleobotany of coal. It remains a highly readable work that sheds light on the understanding of coal at the time of publication.
