This is a wonderful way to study some of the national parks and monuments of the US National Park system Each park or monument represents a different area of geological study, so while you get a grand overview of these parks, you also get a study of one particular area of geology with each location. And it is all done from a young Earth, global Flood perspective.

This book covers 29 United States national parks and monuments, including:

  • Yellowstone Natinal Park (our restless earth)
