The Floor of the Ocean: New Light on Old Mysteries

by Reginald Aldworth Daly

This is a comprehensive treatment of the remarkable discoveries made during the last twenty-five years concerning relief and structures under the world ocean. The author deals with a host of isolated, deep-sea volcanoes; with gigantic submarine chains of mountains; and with thousands of submarine valleys, deeply cut in the submerged flanks of continents and large islands.

Originally published in 1942.
