This episode of Unfolding Fossils is brought to you by the Library Company of Philadelphia and the personal library of Sarah Mapps Douglass, a prominent African American abolitionist, gifted artist and educator.

Written by a female author, our copy of Familiar Lessons in Mineralogy and Geology... (Vol. II) includes this beautiful hand-colored fold-out showing impressions of leaves on various stones as well as layers of sedimentary rock. Douglass signs her name at the top of the title page signifying her ownership of the book.

Welsh, Jane Kilby. Familar lessons in mineralogy and geology... Vol. II. Boston : Clapp & Hull, 1833.
