Report on the geology of the Henry Mountains
Grove Karl Gilbert and Clarence Edward Dutton
In remote Utah, Grove Karl Gilbert found mountains that rose without erupting and coined the science to explain them. He describes the rock series, the great folds, the cliffs and plateaus, and how the land was pushed upward from below. A landmark of American geology born in hard country. Discover how mountains can grow without a single volcano.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
