"Sedona Through Time" awarded
Best Science Book in Arizona (2011) What an honor it is to receive these awards. The earth sciences seem to be unduly marginalized in our society as political polarization and sound bites serve as gateways of science misinformation to some. I desire to make landscapes and their interesting origins a source of inspiration and knowledge to those simply open their eyes to the beautiful world we live in. "Sedona Through Time" is now fully updated in a 3rd edition with new text and new graphics, beautifully designed by Bronze Black. Since its first release in 1993 over 10,000 copies have been sold through two previous editions. It is the standard reference used to connect with the geology of Sedona. This edition has over 90 color photographs, numerous maps and diagrams, and contains dozens of colorful maps developed by Dr. Ron Blakey (and used in our book "Ancient Landscapes of the Colorado Plateau)." Find out how to order this new book by clicking on the book cover above.
