Summary: Rise and Fall of San Diego: 150 Years of History Recorded in
Review: AN EXCELLENT BOOK FOR THE AMATEUR GEOLOGIST, WHETHER YOU LIVE IN SAN DIEGO OR NOT. SO MANY QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED IN A WAY THAT IS EASILY UNDERSTOOD. VERY WELL WRITTEN, AND VERY THOROUGH. I SEE SAN DIEGO IN A WHOLE NEW LIGHT. THANKS

Summary: Excellent insight to San Diego's geology
Review: An excellent book! I find myself continuously recommending it. Fascinating from a geology and local interest point of view. I'll never look at La Jolla, Mission Bay and Point Loma the same way again.

Summary: A very local geology
Review: I can understand that the two five star reviewers are both residents of San Diego, because they're the only people this book is addressed to. The actual geological story is thin and fragmented. Amazingly there is almost no references to the plate techtonic events that created California. There are no maps to direct you to the sites the author describes, making them almost impossible for a visitor to find.If you (as I) don't live in or near San Diego, this book is, at best, mildly interesting.
