About This Book

The text provides an accessible introduction to geology, surveying the materials and structures of the lithosphere, the formation and classification of rocks, and the folding, faulting, and fracturing that shape strata. It treats earth form and surface features, seismic activity, and climatic influences on landscape—especially glaciation and desert processes—showing how to read historical records preserved in landforms. Emphasis falls on observational methods, field excursions, mapping, and illustrative diagrams to teach identification of minerals, rock textures, depositional environments, and the relation of processes to regional scenery. Appendices outline laboratory exercises and travel suggestions for applying the methods in the field.
