Gregg: "A man that has spent thirteen years in the mountains of California" (title page)
2: "If it is necessary to throw away the Bible in order to follow Geology, then I ask to be excused for the present. Now, I want it distinctly understood, that I am not here to oppose true Geology, for it would not amount to much if I should; but my main object is to vindicate the Scriptures, and to show that conclusions arrived at by professors of Geology, which stand in contradiction to the Scriptures, have no claims on our credence."
19ff: Creation with appearance of age (rock strata, tree rings, etc.).
Evidence of Flood in mountains of California.
29: 20,000 animals aboard Ark, not including insects.
Affirms young earth creation in six literal days; no mention of Darwin or evolution.
