Unmarked, except for previous owner's name on inside cover page. ; Book Description; Spine of the book has no signs of creasing. Pages are clean and not marred by notes or folds. Covers are square and with minor wear. Published without Dust Jacket. The Rio Grande rift was largely overlooked as a major continental rift until the 1970's. Geologists in the United States were preoccupied with the much larger Basin and Range province and with the southern Rocky Mountains. The pioneering studies of Bryan (1938) and Kelley (1952, 1954, 1956) had appeared in regional publications that were generally not known outside the southwestern United States. During the 1960's, the Rio Grande rift appeared on maps in several regional studies (Eardley, 1962; Hamilton and Myers, 1966; Cook, 1969) and was variously termed the Rio Grande "rift valley system", "rift belt", or "depression". Many geologists regarded the Rio Grande rift as merely a prong of the Basin and Range province. However, the paper by Seager and Morgan in this volume presents evidence that the southern Rio Grande rift differs from the adjacent Basin and Range province in several important aspects.; Special Publications; B&W Illustrations; 10.30 X 7.80 X 1.20 inches; 438 pages MS4.…

Store description
As with many booksellers, I buy entire collections rather as well as individual titles, which has led to an ever-growing and wonderfully diverse inventory. While metaphysical and occult works remain a favorite, the collection now includes a remarkable selection of geology books, which has become the largest category in the store. You'll also find beautifully illustrated juvenile fiction with memorable dust jacket art, classic murder mysteries, science fiction, history, and a wide variety of nonfiction subjects. One of the joys of Crossroads Books is never knowing what treasure will appear next. Exploring new genres, discovering unusual publishers, and continually expanding the inventory are at the heart of what I do. Whether you're searching for a specific title or simply enjoy browsing for unexpected finds, I hope you'll discover books that inform, inspire, and delight.…
