Book cover Nelson, S. J. 1984
Geological History of the Interior Plains. Prairie Forum 9(2):159-180. Man: User and Modifier of Canadian Plains' Resources, edited by George W. Mitchell, vol. 9.

Book cover Stelck, C. R. 1967
The Record of the Rocks. In Alberta: A Natural History, edited by W. G. Hardy, pp. 21-51. M. G. Hurtig, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
AEU SCI QH 106 H27 Surveys the geologic history of Alberta, providing maps showing the geography at each significant interval. Stelck's main concern is with oil and oil- bearing formations, so all the geology is assessed in these terms. Although the discussion focusses on Alberta, much of it deals with the western interior. The Quaternary is covered in a short survey at the end, and this review is now outdated.
