Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, a result of meticulous surveying and research, details the geological history of Miami County, Kansas. The author, a distinguished geologist of the time, unearthed evidence that the region was once a vast ocean bed, revealing the evolutionary history of the area and its transi…tion into a thriving prairie. The book delves into the composition of the region's soil, rocks, streams, springs, forests, and prairies, providing valuable insights into the county's agricultural potential and the impact of human activity on its environment. It examines the rich fossil record, including petrified wood and shells, which provides a window into the diverse plant and animal life that inhabited the area millions of years ago. Through careful analysis of the geological formations, the author charts the rise and fall of lakes and the gradual formation of the county's unique topography. The book highlights the significance of these geological processes in shaping the region's natural resources, such as limestone, sandstone, and coal, and explores their potential for economic development. By weaving together scientific observation with historical context, this book not only provides a comprehensive understanding of Miami County's geological evolution but also sheds light on the broader forces that have shaped the landscape of the Midwest. It is an invaluable resource for geologists, historians, environmentalists, and anyone interested in the fascinating natural history of this region.
