The wonderful landscape of the Yorkshire Dales owes its beauty to its rocks which were formed in seas, rivers, estuaries and deltas over 300 million years ago. Some, in the west of the Dales, were once part of a mighty mountain range. They have been uplifted, eroded and finally sculpted by vast ice sheets. This lavishly illustrated book tells the story of these rocks and the enchanting region they have formed in a simple, accessible manner. It describes places to visit where this story can be appreciated.
