This volume features a collection of papers originally published between July 10, 1924, and August 3, 1927, and edited by Eugene S. McCartney. Most, but not all, of the contributors were members of the faculties or graduates of the University of Michigan who published on their findings while examining fossils and rock formations. Many of the articles discuss findings from the state of Michigan, including “Occurrence of the Collingwood Formation in Michigan.”

Containing papers published between July 31, 1936, and July 1, 1939, edited by Eugene S. McCartney and published by the University of Michigan Press in 1939, is a comprehensive compilation of influential paleontological research. Among the notable articles included are E. C. Case's study on a nothosaur from the Triassic of Wyoming, Chester A. Arnold's multi-part observations on fossil plants from the Devonian of Eastern North America, and K. G. Brill's description of Productella waynensis, a new brachiopod from the New Providence Shale of Kentucky. The volume also features detailed examinations such as Chester A. Arnold's work on some fossil species of Mavonia from Oregon, E. C. Case's analysis of a specimen of Stylemys nebrascensis showing the bones of the feet and limbs, and Andrew H. McNair's study on cryptostomatous bryozoa from the Middle Devonian Traverse Group of Michigan. Helen Duncan contributes with her research on trepostomatous bryozoa from the Traverse Group of Michigan, and John A. Wilson describes a new species of dog from the Miocene of Colorado. This collection is an invaluable resource for paleontologists and researchers dedicated to the study of fossil plants and animals, providing detailed descriptions and insights into ancient life forms and their geological contexts.

Containing papers published between November 10, 1928, and April 9, 1932, features significant paleontological research. Edited by Eugene S. McCartney and published by the University of Michigan Press in 1932, this volume includes groundbreaking contributions such as E. C. Case's study on indications of a cotylosaur and a new form of fish from the Triassic beds of Texas, Aldred S. Warthin Jr.'s research on fossil fishes from the Triassic of Texas, and the collaborative work of Laurence M. Gould, Aug. F. Foerste, and Russell C. Hussey on the geology of Foxe Land, Baffin Island. Other notable entries include Russell C. Hussey's examination of cystoids from the Trenton Rocks of Michigan, E. C. Case's detailed description of the skeleton of Ostodolepis brevispinatus, and Aug. F. Foerste's studies on the color patterns of fossil cephalopods and brachiopods, as well as additional notes on nephritic erina. E. C. Case also provides insights into the lower jaw of Brachysuchus megalodon, arthrodiran remains from the Devonian of Michigan, limb movement patterns in phytosaurs, and the description of a new species of Buettneria. Chester A. Arnold discusses Calamites newberryi, while Charles F. Deiss offers a description and stratigraphic correlation of the Fenestellidae from the Devonian of Michigan. This volume is an invaluable resource for paleontologists and researchers interested in furthering their understanding of fossil organisms and geological history.

In his preface to Recurrent Maladies in Scholarly Writing, Eugene S. McCartney says, "During my lengthy service I have edited books in a great variety of subjects and have seen through the press over fourteen hundred articles reporting investigations in a dozen fields. . . . In spite of the great diversity of treatment and subject matter, the regularity with which manuscripts from the four corners of our land continue to tax editors' time, strength, knowledge, resourcefulness, and tact demonstrates the fundamental unity of our nation and our abiding adherence to the American way of life." His lavishly illustrated observations on the common mistakes of authors are both amusing and instructive.
