The Mountains Of Saint Francis
Takes readers on an excavation of the Earth's distant past. This work describes the volcanoes that formed the Seven Hills of Rome; the majestic limestone Appennine mountains that started to develop millions of years ago under water; and the evidence that the Mediterranean Sea completely evaporated to a sunken desert.
