Glaciation of the Puget Sound Region is a scientific book written by J. Harlen Bretz in 1913. The book is a comprehensive study of the geological history of the Puget Sound region, an area in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. The author examines the formation and movement of glaciers during the Pleistocene epoch, which occurred between 2.6 million and 11,700 years ago. Bretz presents detailed descriptions of the glacial features, such as moraines, drumlins, and eskers, and how they were formed. He also discusses the impact of climate change on the glaciers and how they affected the landscape. The book includes numerous illustrations, maps, and diagrams to help readers understand the complex geological processes that shaped the Puget Sound region. The author’s writing style is technical and scientific, making it a valuable resource for geologists, students, and researchers interested in the glacial history of the region. Overall, Glaciation of the Puget Sound Region is a seminal work in the field of glaciology and a significant contribution to the understanding of the geological history of the Pacific Northwest.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
