Published by Casemate Publishing, 2015, softcover, illustrated, index, 320 pages, condition: as new.

The book presents 50 of the most recognizable and geologically interesting sites around South Africa, including some of paleontological or historical renown and some of mining interest. The diverse selection includes sites such as Chapmans Peak, Howick Falls, Walter Sisulu National Botanical Gardens, Mapungubwe, Tswaing Meteorite Crater and the Fraserburg Fossil Surface.

Each site is unpacked to reveal: key features; geological heritage; landscape and rock formations; topics of local or historical interest; things to see and do at the site and in the surrounding area. Maps and GPS pointers make the sites easy to find, and some of the more complicated features are explained by means of simplified diagrams. Nearly 1,000 color images illustrate South Africas remarkable geology and bring the topic vividly to life, making the book suitable for armchair travel too.

GAVIN WHITFIELD has an MSc in Geology from Rhodes University. He has worked in a research laboratory, done mineral exploration in various countries and has been involved in significant mining exploration successes. He is a Fellow of the Geological Society of South Africa and been active on its Conservation Committee. He has co-authored several technical publications and the best-selling book (with Nick Norman) Geological Journeys: A Traveller's guide to South Africa's Rocks and Landforms.
