The Other Side of Time: Essays by “The Catskill Geologist”

Geologist Robert Titus has developed a remarkable ability to reach out and communicate Catskill geological history to the general public in his many articles in Kaatskill Life magazine and his hundreds of newspaper columns.  This book collects his favorite articles from Kaatskill Life, Woodstock Times, Greenville Times and The Independent (Columbia County).  If you love Catskill landscapes, this book will reward you with insights you will find nowhere else.  Accompany Bob Titus as he guides you throughout the region, interpreting the evidence as he goes, at places ranging from Boyhood Rock at John Burroughs’s Woodchuck Lodge to Kaaterskill Clove to evidence of an ancient poison sea once covering the western Catskills, the Chittenango Shale, visible from Rte. 20 near Cherry Valley.
