Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed exploration of the geologic evolution of the Irondequoit Valley region in New York over millions of years. The author begins by describing the valley's formation during a period of coastal plain development, followed by its modification and erosion due to river activity and ice age glaciers. Describing the valley's subsequent history, the book discusses the deposition of sediments during the Lake Dawson and Iroquois eras, shaping the valley's present form. The author also examines the impact of the creation of these glacial lakes on the landscape and the surrounding communities, providing insights into the dynamic interplay between geological processes and human history. By studying the Irondequoit Valley, the author sheds light on the broader understanding of the geological forces that have shaped the Earth's surface over time.
