Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the discovery of the origins of the Niagara River and its profound implications for our understanding of earth and human history. The author shows that this river has been a relatively recent phenomenon - born only after the last ice age around 12,500 years ago. It was not there when humans first arrived in North America, a fact with many ramifications for theories about their migratory patterns. The book also examines the Niagara's history through glacial periods, its unique geological attributes, and discusses the effect of its powerful waterfalls on the gorge formed over thousands of years.
