The Geology of Button Bay State Park

"The Geology of Button Bay State Park" by Harry W. Dodge, Jr. is a scientific exploration of the land formations and history of Button Bay State Park, located on the eastern shore of Lake Champlain in Vermont, where ancient geological happenings shaped the land. Dodge shares a close look at the park’s geological forms, diving into the clay cliffs and beach by the lake, which have transformed over thousands of years. The text explains how melting glaciers and old lakes, like Lake Vermont, created the current land and left behind marine clay remains. Throughout the book, readers can learn about fossils, sediment builds, ground shifts, and how geological processes formed the Champlain Valley region. The book is made to be an educational resource for those who like geology and the past.
