Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the coastal mountain ranges of Southern California, grouping them by geological characteristics and addressing their geological history and significance. The author provides an in-depth study of the different axes and volcanic rocks found within these ranges, discussing their age, strike, and elevation. They examine the climatic conditions during the Miocene period and theorize about the mode of elevation of the Coast Range. The book also includes an examination of the coast soundings, connecting the fossils of the various strata with each other. The author highlights the dissimilarities between these Miocene-age strata and their European counterparts, emphasizing that not all coeval formations in distant oceans are necessarily identical. The study of the relation in fauna of the several beds of Southern California provides valuable insights into marine life and deposits, shedding light on the area's geological past.
