Over the Mountains (An Aerial View of Geology)

Product Details

IntroducingAn Aerial View of Geologyseries.

Geology is thrilling. It's the Earth in all its splendor. Unfortunately, geology texts rarely communicate that sense of excitement.

Enter Michael Collier, geologist, writer and one of America's premier aerial photographers. For over 20 years, he has piloted his Cessna 180 to inaccessible locations and returned with stunning photographs that lay bare the Earth's workings.

Over the Mountains, the first book in Michael Collier's new series, focuses on geology's most spectacular subject in a most spectacular way. It includes:

• Detailed and breathtaking large-format color photographs covering the geology of every major mountain range in the United States
• Clear, easy-to-understand text, diagrams and captions that explain and illuminate the geologic processes shown in the photographs.

After exploring the pages of Over the Mountains, readers will never think of mountains -- or geology -- in the same way again.

Collier can take pride in his rare excellence of production. He has obviously been at the right place at the right time, as the lighting in these photographs is exquisite. Even though it appears that the color may have been slightly enhanced... you still need the content for a great photograph. Viewing the formations from above puts everything you have read geolocically into perspective. Collier's photographs introduce you to visuals of the tumultuous geological history of the mountainous regions of approximately eleven states. The text is a great read as well. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves geology and photography.
