In the early morning hours of May 18, 1980, the pristine scenery around Washington's Mount St. Helens was shattered by a powerful explosion that devastated its north slope. The eruption of a landmark mountain had begun.

In the aftermath, amid the rivers of mud, blankets of ash, and eerie quiet, scientists made a startling discovery: “nature” was bringing life out of death, re-claiming from the destruction a teeming colony of plant and animal life. Most amazing of all, the geological upheavals had re-created the processes of old that had carved out such marvels as the Grand Canyon.

Today, the site stands as a testament to the power of God, who upholds all of creation. In His infinite wisdom, He has shown the modern science of geology that the earth is much, much younger than many suspected.

About the Author

As president of the Institute for Creation Research (ICR) in Texas, and a widely respected author in his own right, Dr. John Morris brings an impressive combination of scientific knowledge and uncompromising faith to his work. With his Ph.D. in Geological Engineering, he has authored a number of articles, publications, and books - including those on geology and the biblical truths of creation. Titles include The Young Earth and Is the Big Bang Biblical? He is also the co-author of The Modern Creation Trilogy.
Dr. Steven Austin received his doctorate in geology from Pennsylvania State University. His specialty is the sedimentary processes that form rock strata, fossils, and fossil fuels. While a student at the University of Washington before the 1980 eruptions, Dr. Austin walked on the slopes of Mount St. Helens seeking to understand the processes that formed the Earth. He has led 15 research expeditions to the Grand Canyon, written numerous research papers, and lectured widely on creation. Footprints in the Ash is his third published book.
