Rating:
Summary: Inconceivable information about the Columbia River Gorge
Review: This fascinating book, written in language easily understood by non-geologist, yet full of scientific facts that a geologist can appreciate reads like a detective story; describing in detail how the geologic history and formation of the Columbia River was finally understood. It can be used as a road guide and has many maps and photographs showing exact locations of features discussed in the book. A MUST READ FOR ANYONE TRAVELING THROUGH THE COLUMBIA RIVER GORGE IN OREGON!

This book is one that has provided geologist with many of the keys and clues that are presently being used to understand the large flood features seen on Mars.
