Description: Shrinking seas, colliding continental masses, volcanism, mountain building--all these are ancient happenings that have been inscribed in a chronicle of continuous change which is preserved in the rock of Appalachia. Once a young range with high, craggy, snowcapped peaks, the Appalachian Mountains have eroded over millions of years to their present broad band of gentle rolling hills. These hills cover a strip of land from the southeastern United States to the tenth province off the east coast of Canada. The rugged beauty of Newfoundland provides the location for this program, a case study of the geological history of the Appalachians.-
