Sam.Hibbert's book on the volcanos(sic) of the Eifel region was published in 1832; it contained some interesting discussion on loess and loess deposits (see Loess Letter 67 at www.loessletter.msu.edu).
Attached was a remarkable map, drawn by Charlotte Hibbert- which deserves to be better known and appreciated. We reproduce some parts; what is needed is a full scale republication- the map's full title is: The volcanic district bounded by the rivers Nette & Bruhl on the Lower Rhine-(for some discussion see Fitzsimmons et al 2019).
Fitzsimmons, K., McLaren, S., Smalley, I.J. 2018. The first loess maps and related matters; contributions by twenty significant women loess scholars. Open Geosciences 10, 311-322.
Smalley, I.J. 2019. Samuel Hibbert in Edinburgh; early studies on loess deposits- connecting Leonard and Lyell. Quaternary International 502A, 165-172.
