Notes: A volume in McPhee’s Annals of the Former World series.  Once you become accustomed to the geologic terminology it becomes classic McPhee–“…a cross-section in human and geologic time, from Donner Pass in the Sierra Nevada through the gold foothills of the Mother Lode and across the Great Central valley to the wine country of the Coast Ranges, the rock of San Francisco, and the San Andreas family of faults.”  Originally published in 1994, there is no statement of publication date or printing.  The ISBN is a 13-digit, which came into widespread use after 2003.
