Accompanied by luminous oil paintings of majestic landscapes, Locker's spare, poetic text describes various kinds of mountains and the geological phenomena that created them and continue to shape them. While not an introduction (some knowledge of basic geology is needed), this book will perhaps inspire readers to learn more. Additional scientific information about each type of mountain pictured is appended.
