Description

Enliven your next trip across the prairie with this comprehensive guide to Nebraska's surprisingly diverse geology. Discover toadstools eroded out of jointed sandstone, rhinoceroses, entombed in volcanic ash, and the largest dune field in the Western Hemisphere. With detailed maps and engaging writing, Roadside Geology of Nebraska describes the geologic features visible from the state's highways and leads you to outcrops tucked away in wooded river valleys. -- Nebraska's geology is as exciting as the Cornhuskers. You'll discover badlands, braided rivers, fossil rhinos entombed in volcanic ash, and the largest dune field in the Western Hemisphere.
