"No, the Southeast does not necessarily boast the most camera-ready rocks and sediment on the planet. The authors of these guides, however, make a convincing argument that our geology is certainly up there with some of the more interesting. This volume, produced in conjunction with the 2012 GSA Annual Meeting in Charlotte, North Carolina, showcases that geology with a broad range of timescales and settings throughout the Carolinas and adjacent states. So, grad your machete, your shovel, your bug spray, and perhaps even your night vision goggles, and set off to explore the amazing field experiences that our corner of the planet has to offer." -- Foreword, by the editors.
