WEGENER, Alfred (1880-1930). "Die Entstehung der Kontinente." In: Dr. A. Petermanns mitteilungen aus Justus Perthes' geographischer anstalt , 58 (1912), pp. 185-195; 253-256; 305-309. Gotha: Justus Perthes, 1912. 3 parts. 4 o (278 x 230 mm). Text diagrams, folding map (Part I). Original brown printed wrappers (rebacked), modern cloth case. FIRST EDITION, JOURNAL ISSUE. Wegener was the originator and one of the chief defender's of the theory of continental drift. This, his first paper on the subject, attracted little attention, and it was only with the publication of a second edition of his treatise in 1919 that his theory became a subject of wide controversy. It was largely ignored from the 1930s to the 1950s, when new paleo-magnetic evidence appeared to support the theory. Norman 2192. (3)
