Editorial Reviews
Review
"This book will surely enhance any visit to these beautiful states. If someone reads as you drive along, you will travel more slowly. If you collect samples, it may take several summers for you to complete your trip." --Science Books & Films
Product Description
This book is for everyone who ever traveled in these lovely states and wondered about the meaning of their landscapes and tortured rocks. Since it is a book for the traveler, it concentrates on what you can see from a car, yet it points out interesting places to stop and examine rocks you can get close to, touch, or even sample. It addresses the broad plate tectonic concepts of opening and closing oceans, volcanism, mountain building, and colliding continents.
