Kansas Landscapes : A Photographic Tour of the Region’s Geological History, Hardcover by Miller, Keith B.; Bean, Scott (PHT), ISBN 0700638725, ISBN-13 9780700638727, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US "If we view the natural world in the context of time, everything we see becomes a story. Nothing can be truly understood without reference to time and change. The varied landscapes of Kansas are reflections of the underlying geology. Regions of similar topography are classified as physiographic provinces, and are underlain by rocks of similar age and composition. In Landscapes of Kansas, Keith Miller takes readers on a tour of Kansas's provinces, from those underlain by the oldest rocks to those exposingsediments deposited in the relatively recent past. Each region of Kansas is placed into the long chronology of Earth history: changing sea levels and global climates, the uplift and erosion of mountains, and the evolution of life over hundreds of millions of years"-- Provided by publisher.
