Produktinformationen "The Nevadaplano"
"The Nevadaplano" is an essay accompanied by more than 40 photos that describes Buzz Eggleston's effort to understand the geology of the place where he has lived for most of the past four decades, California's Mother Lode in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. His journey took years, and the territory grew. He traveled across parts of five states, read scientific texts and technical papers, and interviewed leading geologists. What he discovered is that the surface geology that draws our interest is created by forces far deeper in the earth, the crash of the Farallon and North American tectonic plates. This dramatic and still-unfolding story, beginning tens of millions of years ago, helps us better understand the scenic marvels of today's American West and perhaps we get a glimpse of its distant future.
