ROADSIDE GEOLOGY OF OKLAHOMA
N H. S
Dinosaur tracks preserved in sandstone, knobs of granite rising from
the plains, and springs cascading down limestone cli s are just a few
of the fascinating geologic features discussed in Roadside Geology of
Oklahoma, a guide to more than 35 roads that crisscross the state.
Geologist Neil Suneson tells you what to look for along the roads, points
you to nearby parks with interesting rocks and crystals, and recounts
the history of radium mineral baths, coal mines, fossil excavations,
and petroleum drilling, not to mention the rush for nonexistent gold
in the Wichita Mountains.
