NEWLY PUBLISHED AND AVAILABLE ONLINE AND AT YOUR BOOKSTORES:

Ghost Mountains and Vanished Oceans – North America from Birth to Middle Age: a new book by John Wilson, author of Dancing Elephants and Floating Continents,  and Ron Clowes, Director of Lithoprobe, that is aimed at the general adult reader. It is the Lithoprobe story and more. Stories of mountains rising and falling, oceans opening and closing, and entire continents sliding around on the surface like shuffleboard pieces. Stories that incorporate lost explorers, Irish bishops, Scottish cannibals, and a naturalist who should be as famous as Charles Darwin. The tale told is of the birth, death, and rebirth of entire continents and, by extension, it is the story of the world on which we live.
