This guide is a significant addition to Maine's literature for the naturalist. Arthur Hussey, Bowdoin College Professor of Geology emeritus, has produced an insightful and lucid explanation of the geology of southwestern Maine. No prerequisites are required to fully understand and appreciate this book. Based on Hussey's fifty-five years of field study, this is a boot-on-the-ground guide that is every bit as good as a textbook on the subject, but far more engaging. Reading it is almost like hearing him speak and personal anecdotes enliven the narrative. The guide is well illustrated with Hussey's own photos, figures and maps. The table summarizing the geological events, glossary of terms and an index are valuable features. The reader will develop an understanding of the southwestern Maine's rock outcrops, its landscape and the forces that account for them.
