<p>The unique landscape of the Finger Lakes Region-a combination of deep lakes, numerous waterfalls, unusual hills, salt deposits, and gorges-holds a fascination for both its residents and the thousands of annual visitors who make upper New York State a destination each year. Here the geological history of this "gorges" landscape is told by Cornell University master teacher Art Bloom (1928-2017), who introduced generations of students and curious individuals of all ages to the story behind the region's beautiful scenery, its glacial history, and its world-class examples of many landforms: drumlins, through valleys, bedrock-cut channels, and more. The first five chapters provide overviews of the regional geology, as well as important terms and concepts. Gorges History concludes with a series of site-specific descriptions of places in the area that you can visit to learn even more.</p>
