With great detail and a sincere dedication to place, Robert Root encourages us to pay attention to the land beneath our feet, appreciate its changes, and value its preservation as we travel back through time and appreciate the scale of the history of the landscape around us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Root\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1960329251\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781960329257\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cornerstone Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.68d","brand":"Robert Root","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44634775486719,"sku":"9781960329257","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c33b4589-1714-4578-a606-a03d5c5afe6a.jpg?v=1703590848","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-arc-of-the-escarpment-robert-root-9781960329257","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
