Book excerpt: sle Royale and the Keweenaw Peninsula have a rich cultural, industrial, and mining heritage, all connected by their geologic underpinnings. This region is the result of geologic forces during two vastly different periods in time that shaped spectacular landscapes¿the largest lava flow known on Earth, stunning red cliffs of sandstone, an archipelago in the largest freshwater lake in the world, wave-tossed pebble beaches, dunes, and Lake Superior itself. This book offers a general introduction to the processes behind the diverse and globally significant geology of the Keweenaw Peninsula and Isle Royale and the relationship of that geology to human inhabitants, known as geoheritage.Humans came to North America more than 15,000 years ago when the glaciers were receding and leaving magnificent pieces of copper on the surface. Evidence from Isle Royale indicates that early people mined this area 4,500 years ago, although mining likely began here much earlier. Keweenaw copper was discovered at McCargoe Cove on Isle Royale, marking what is referred to as the North American Bronze Age. During this time, copper was traded all over NorthAmerica. Ancient pits have been discovered at dozens of sites on Isle Royale and the Keweenaw, and beautiful copper objects have been found throughout the Midwest, particularly in Wisconsin. Archaeological evidence along with a rich storytelling tradition indicates that early inhabitants had a deep understanding of the geologic landscape. Copper treasure from the Earth was a focus of human interest and marks the beginning of our geoheritage.

Book excerpt: "The people of Michigan can boast many things about their state, including the fact that it is the only state in the nation in the United States to border four of the five Great Lakes-giving it its the nickname, the Great Lakes State-and the only state in the nation comprised of two peninsulas. This abundance of shoreline translates to But Michigan also has a multitude of geologic features that make the state special rock exposed by waves and currents. Nearly the entire history of Earth is on display in Michigan, from 3.6-billion-year-old gneisses to potholes drilled by modern rivers. Michigan Rocks! guides you to 56 world-class geologic sites scattered from Isle Royale and the Upper Peninsula to Lower Michigan, including Michigan's Thumb, where carvings in sandstone are preserved at Sanilac Petroglyph State Historic Park. Many of the well-chosen sites are two-fers: you get a good look at ancient features in a rock from time immemorial and see the damage wrought on that same rock by recent glacial ice and erosion. The author's explanations of the geologic processes that formed these features at work, along with photographs, illustrations, and informative figures and maps, make this the perfect field guide of Michigan rocks for amateur and expert geologists alike-and everyone in between!"--
