    The rocks of the Niagara Escarpment were formed in the middle of the Silurian Period (c. 443 to c. 412 million years ago) and were exposed during periods of glaciation that prevented and removed subsequent geologic depositions as recently as 11,000 years ago in the northern Midwest. The Arc of the Escarpment invites us to discover nearly hidden evidence of the Escarpment, ascend to cliff tops, descend to the base of cliffs, crawl into sinkhole-formed caverns, walk the woodlands that surround the cliffs, learn the changes that industry and commerce made to the landscape, and discover the sites that ecologists and conservationists have explored and preserved. With great detail and a sincere dedication to place, Robert Root encourages us to pay attention to the land beneath our feet, appreciate its changes, and value its preservation as we travel back through time and appreciate the scale of the history of the landscape around us.

    "An engaging book that expands the analysis of popular culture and the uses of rhetoric as a methodological tool. In so doing, Root provides readers with an excellent introduction to both fields. Following a brief theoretical introduction, Root applies rhetorical analysis to the fields of advertising, advocacy, and entertainment. Within each of these areas, the reader is presented with a variety of examples that focus on the written, verbal, and visual aspects of rhetoric.... [The] book is an excellent introduction for students in a number of different disciplines, including English, communications, and sociology. Each of the nine substantive chapters is accompanied by a study guide that suggests ways to conduct a rhetorical analysis in that area. Root's writing style is lucid and the text is well organized.
