This volume surveys the ancient roots and dynamic tectonics that shape continents, from uplifts and basins to mountain belts, with clear explanations suitable for students and working geologists alike.

This edition reflects a decade of new data and shifts in structural theory, offering up-to-date interpretations while retaining the core structure of the original work. It blends broad overviews with detailed maps, sections, and plate relationships to help you understand how geologic forces built and altered the continent.

Wide-ranging coverage of major rock belts, basins, and orogenic events across the continent.
Integrated discussions of structural geology concepts, formations, and tectonic evolution.
Illustrative figures, maps, and a thorough index to aid study and reference.
Clear, accessible prose designed for classroom use and professional inquiry.

Ideal for readers with an interest in the tectonic history of North America, regional geology, and the processes shaping mountain belts and sedimentary basins.
