As children we commonly develop a keen interest in geology, the science of dinosaurs and volcanoes, glaciers and earthquakes. Given encouragement, we never give up that fascination.Robert and Johanna Titus are well known throughout the Catskills and Hudson Valley for their engaging writing and speaking. Now they have revised and expanded an old classic: The Catskills: A Geological Guide, first published in 1993. Come with them and learn about the great geological history hidden in the region's rocks and landscapes. Here is the story of continental collisions, lost mountain ranges and primitive fossil creatures - denizens of a now-vanished ancient sea. But most of all, it is the story of the land of Gilboa, among the oldest fossil forests on Earth. Robert and Johanna invite you to travel back through time to explore the Catskill Mountains and their 400 million year history.
