Dr. Robert Titus has revised and enlarged his guide to the geology of New York State's Catskill Mountains for this thrid edition. Written for the layperson, the book explores the 400 million years of geological history hidden in the region's rocks and landscapes. Here are stories of continental collisions, lost mountain ranges, and primitive fossil creatures in an ancient sea. Most of all it is the story of the land of Gilboa, literally a land that time has forgotten.

To someone who knows how to read the landscape, the Catskills generate fabulous images of ice, glacial lakes, and fossil rivers roaring through the valleys--the Catskill Mountains as we know them are the legacy of massive forces. Virtually all Catskill mountain villages are built where they are because glaciers made some of the land habitable; our best agricultural lands are the floors of glacial lakes; much of our recreational hiking and climbing leads to scenery carved by the passing ice. The glaciers that covered these mountains did not in themselves produce art, literature, or environmental ethics, but here they created a setting that inspired all three. That is the story of "The Catskills in the Ice Age."
