WAYNE RANNEY'S LATEST:
CARVING THE GRAND CANYON.
The Grand Canyon is one of earth's most recognizable landscapes,
yet a definitive answer for how or when it formed has proved elusive
— even though geologists have studied the canyon for almost
150 years! The book is filled with color photographs by the author
as well as other well-known southwestern photographers, paintings
by Grand Canyon artist Bruce Aiken, numerous original illustrations
and maps, and views of the canyon from space. A concise summary
of the most likely set of events that gave rise to Grand Canyon
is included at the end of the book. A glossary, index, and scientific
and popular bibliographies are also included.
Softcover, with vibrant color photographs.

Visitors to the towering red rock spires of
Sedona seldom suspect that the area was once a broad river floodplain
that lay beyond the Ancestral Rocky Mountains. This same place was
later buried in a vast, Sahara-like desert, still later to lie beneath
the waters of a warm tropical sea filled with ancient life forms.
Author-geologist, Wayne Ranney's, SEDONA
THROUGH TIME is an eminently readable story of the evolution
of this fantastic landscape through the eons of geologic time.
Softcover, 104 pages; $14.95 plus shipping.
