"There are many people fascinated by the intriguing landscapes in the Reno-Lake Tahoe-Pyramid Lake areas who would not normally be aware of these [technical] reports [by the staff of the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology (NBMG) and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM)], nor enjoy wading through the technical language in them. This book is intended to fill gaps in the current collection of available publications on tourist attractions and the natural history of the Reno-Tahoe area. The goal is to provide a geologic guide for local citizens and tourists as they drive the main roads visiting the area's many sites of natural beauty and historical importance"--P. 5. - Bibliography Note
- Bibliography: pages 202-210.
