Roadside geology of New Mexico [WorldCat Entities]

"This book is designed to give to Coloradoans and Colorado visitors - especially those with little or no geologic training but with an abiding interest and sense of excitement in their surroundings - a feeling for the long prehistory of Colorado. Colorado's story, which begins not millions but bililons of years ago, involves tremendous forces working deep within our earth. It involves rain and snow and desert wind, washing seas and creeping tongues of ice. It involves the birth and the evolution of life, first in the sea, later on land, and still later in the air. It involves earthquakes and floods, landslides and volcanoes and the coming of man himself."

"If the states had been published in order of geological interest Utah would have been first. Halka (Pages of stone) writes gracefully and competently of the state--most of the interest lies in the eastern and southern wedge. The land forms here are extraordinarily dramatic and are visible in intimate detail owing to the lack of forest cover. The series neglects a good index map. No bibliography.
