Book Description

Why does a bit of ocean floor lie on top of Mt. Diablo? Why is Red Rock, that small, knobby island in San Francisco Bay, red? Why is Loma Prieta high? This book is for San Francisco Bay Area residents and visitors who want to explore the geologic world of this spectacular area, to learn about its shapes, colors, and rocky foundations. Doris Sloan illuminates the colorful geologic mosaic that surrounds San Francisco Bay and lucidly explains the complex and fascinating processes that have forged it over millions of years. In a lively and engaging style, Sloan describes forces such as the movement of tectonic plates, erosion, the waves on the coast, and human activity. She provides background information on the processes, time frame, and rocks that are the key to understanding the Bay Area landscape and geologic history, then turns to distinct regions of the Bay Area and to San Francisco Bay itself. Superbly illustrated with 139 color photographs, 41 drawings, and 29 maps Covers Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma counties Gives clear, nontechnical explanations of complex topics including plate tectonics and the Bay Area's fault systems Suggests locales in parks and open space preserves to view Bay Area geology in action

Listening to books in their original language has improved my foreign language skills. ListenBook's compatibility with CarPlay and Apple Watch makes it a versatile companion for my daily activities. With this app, I've found a way to turn every moment into an opportunity for learning and enrichment. Makes audiobook listening super easy and enjoyable. Thanks, ListenBook! I’d listen to this narrator read anything! Their voice was so expressive and fitting for the material. The story itself was great, but the narration took it to the next level. Definitely a 5-star experience.

With ListenBook, my audio content is organized, accessible, and ready to inspire me. This app's intuitive controls and user-friendly layout have made audiobook listening a true pleasure. The narrator's voice took some getting used to - a bit nasal at first - but I grew to like it after a few chapters. Their pacing was excellent throughout.
