This is No. 8 in the series Scenic Trips to the Geologic Past. Frank E. Kottlowski was born on April 11, 1921, in Indianapolis, Indiana. In World War II he served in Europe as an aerial navigator and photographic interpreter for the 8th Air Force from 1942 to 1945, receiving five distinguished service metals. After the war, he attended Indiana University and was one semester away from completing his certified public accountant degree when he took a geology course from Charles Deiss. He received his B.A. in 1947. In his next four years at Indiana, Frank received his M.A. in structural geology (1949) and Ph.D. in economic geology (1951). In 1951 Frank was offered a position as economic geologist in New Mexico, which he held until 1969, when he was made a senior economic geologist. In 1967 Frank took on administrative duties at the bureau, serving as assistant director until 1968 and again from 1969 to 1973, and as acting director from 1968 to 1969 and from 1973 to 1974. Frank was appointed a faculty associate in 1954 and adjunct professor of geology in 1970; the latter position he held until 1995. Frank became director of the New Mexico Bureau of Mines and Mineral Resources in 1974 and later state geologist, positions he held until his retirement in 1991. Upon retirement in 1991 Frank received emeritus status from New Mexico Tech. A truly representative picture of New Mexico is presented in this guide for visitor and resident. The traveler gains a background knowledge of the State's centuries-old history, desert-to-alpine flora and fauna, geological past, ancient Indians, and frontier forts. He learns of the numerous recreational and scenic attractions of its nine National Monuments, seven Forests, and one Park and nine State Monuments and twenty-one Parks. Unusual features such as the Antelope Plains, Ghost Ranch Museum, Sitting Bull Falls, Jackpile open-pit uranium mine, Jornada del Muerto, and Abo Pass redbeds are described, as are nineteen Indian pueblos. Routes given include both major highways and good secondary roads; all are well designated and easy to follow on the full-color general map. Second Edition [Stated]. Presumed first printing thus.
