In my research on Texas geology, I've acquired quite a few information-packed books. I'd like to share some of my favorites with you here.

This book is indispensible when I'm on a photo shoot. Whether you're a geology buff like me or a rock-hound looking for treasure, "Roadside Geology of Texas" is a fantastic guidebook!		Another engaging history of the natural forces that have shaped Texas.
A great field guide for methodically identifying your treasures!		Hiking and Backpacking? Yes. The field geologist often must do a bit of hiking to access all parts of this great classroom we call earth. Hundreds of miles of public trails take you to many a geologist's paradise!
