But it happened that the coal needed to replace the dwindling forests of this small and exceptionally rain-saturated country occurs in low, hollow basins overlaying clay, and not, as in China and the Alleghenies, for example, on high-lying outcrops that can be worked as chalk is worked in England.
John TrevithickNARRATOR
