This book presents a new and exciting angle - the geological highlights of the region's intriguing landscape. East Africa's cataclysmic volcanic legacy, caused by rifting of the landmass, has resulted in a rich source of geological wonders. These range from the seemingly endless, peaceful plains of the Serengeti to the stark skyscraper walls of extinct calderas and the boiling magma cauldrons and belching vents of the Nyiragongo Volcano.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis handy guide escorts users around all the major - and some minor - parks of Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, as well as the Virunga Mountains in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Descriptions of each park and its wildlife offerings, both fauna and flora, preface discussion of the geological origins, influences and current conditions. Key geosites in the parks, and how to access them, are indicated. Maps, satellite images and diagrams, along with vivid photography, help explain the dramatic landforms, both close up and from above.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor anyone planning a safari to the legendary East African game parks and reserves, this book adds an exciting new dimension.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roger Scoon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1775847772\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781775847779\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Random House South Africa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/18\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.08h x 6.78w x 0.66d","brand":"Roger Scoon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447975915775,"sku":"9781775847779","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4686fc00-a5a8-4941-b18d-54fb9e619c3b.jpg?v=1777236072","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/geological-highlights-of-east-africas-roger-scoon-9781775847779","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
