5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent geologic and topographic primer
As a Tennessee resident for 15 years, I found this book answered all my questions about this geologically diverse state. The author describes in clear text how and when each of the unique regions were formed and how they relate to each other. I would recommend this book to anyone with an interest in Tennessee, or any student contemplating a high school or college...

2.0 out of 5 stars
Out of date geology
I read this book immediately after reading Earth: An Intimate History, which is a current overview of plate tectonics. In several places, Our Restless Earth was directly contradicted by the contemporary research from Earth: An Intimate History. So, unfortunately, Our Restless Earth can't be relied on for correct geological information.

This review is from: Our Restless Earth: Geologic Regions Tennessee (Tennessee Three Star Books) (Paperback)
As a Tennessee resident for 15 years, I found this book answered all my questions about this geologically diverse state. The author describes in clear text how and when each of the unique regions were formed and how they relate to each other. I would recommend this book to anyone with an interest in Tennessee, or any student contemplating a high school or college course in geology. It is also a perfect companion to "A Geologic Trip Across Tennessee by Interstate 40" by Harry Moore. "Our Restless Earth" describes what happened, and "A Geologic Trip..." takes you there to view it and collect the evidence.
