Field books
Manuscripts
The field books cover a period of about a half a century. The earliest were kept while Arnold was getting his doctorate at Stanford, and the succeeding one, 1900-1904, written while Arnold was a member of the U.S. Geological Survey, furnish the basis for the work upon which Arnold established his professional reputation as a paleontologist and petroleum engineer. The later books, 1944-1957, represent valuable surveys in petroleum fields in Arizona, California, Oklahoma, Oregon, Montana, Texas and Washington, as well as Alaska, Canada and Mexico.
