A Geologist's View of
Cape Cod
by Arthur N. Strahler
"Finally the last vestiges of ice were gone and the great work of the ice
sheets in shaping Cape Cod has come to an end"
Thus begins the unique geological history of Cape Cod. Formed millions of
years after the rest of New England was carved from its ancient rock, Cape
Cod is a showcase of past and present geological activity. Glacial erratics,
knobs and kettles, hanging valleys, cranberry bogs, and podzols are only a
few of the Cape Cod phenomena which Arthur Strahler points out and explains
in this compact and clearly written book. Illustrated with 60 B&W photos and
drawings.
Natural History Press, Garden City NY, 1966, 115 pages, trade paperback,
bottom page ends speckled with purple, illustrated.
