The volume, which is printed in a horizontal format (11x9") and features many impressive photos by the author as well as historic photos, details the science of glacier, the history of the study of the Columbia Glacier, the physics of glaciers, and the upper glacier there. There is a bibliography, but no index. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
