Synopsis
Excerpt from The Geography of the Region About Devil's Lake, Vol. 5: And the Dalles of the Wisconsin, With Some Notes on Its Surface Geology
This report has to do with the physical geography of the area in south central Wisconsin, shown on the accompanying sketch map, Plate I. The region is of especial interest, both because of its striking scenery, and because it illustrates clearly many of the principles involved in the evolution of the geography of land surfaces.
