D-D Landings in Normandy, 1944 (2003)
The only British Guide to the geological controls on the D-Day landings in Normandy. The guide puts into context many of the reasons why the Normandy coast was selected for the invasion, reasons most people are, or were, unaware of. The four itineraries are based on examining the solid (mainly highly fossiliferous Jurassic strata) and superficial (such as Pleistocene loess) geology exposures associated with and adjacent to the main landing areas, Sword, Juno, Gold, Omaha and Utah Beaches, including considering them in terms of water supply, aggregate sources, airfield sites and cross-country movements. A glossary is incorporated.

Anglesey (1981) NEW EDITION
by D.E.B.Bates & J.R.Davies
Anglesey contains a fascinating variety of rock types and geological structures, best exposed in a magnificent coastline ‘Hard rock’ and structural geology interests are catered for in Precambrian and Ordovician areas, palaeontology in the Ordovician and Carboniferous and sedimentology in all the systems. The ten itineraries are roughly in stratigraphical order but each itinerary covers a particular area. An indication of the approximate length of each itinerary and their dependence on tides.

Early Cretaceous Environments of the Weald (1996)
by Alastair Ruffell, Andrew Ross & Kevin Taylor
In order for the Guide not to become out-of-date it concentrates on exposures that are likely to remain in their present state for some time, thus some abandoned sites are omitted. The interested geologist will find the locations easily, observe the main features with no trouble, and be able to do this for some years to come.

The Coastal Landforms of West Dorset (1992)
A series of itineraries illustrating the geology and denudational history along the coastline of West Dorset. This most beautiful coast is world famous for its spectacular recurrent landslides and the causes of these are fully explored together with their effects on shingle movement at beach level, the latter and best known being Chesil Beach.

The Aberystwyth District (1995)
compiled by M.R.Dobson
The Aberystwyth Grits and Borth Mudstones (Silurian) are magnificently exposed in accessible cliffs along the coastline of Cardigan Bay and are world-famous as classic examples of turbidity current deposition. But the region is also known for the variety of its glacial landforms and modern sedimentary environments . Nineteen itineraries are described in detail, the first eight dealing with the variations in the turbidite fan succession between New Quay in th south and Harp Rock in the north. The rest cover the Dovey Estuary, the Quaternary and solid geology of Cardigan Bay and the Plynlimon area. A glossary is included.

Geology of the Western Front (1999)
by Peter Doyle
Geology and topography of the battlefields of France and Belgium had an important role in determining the character and the outcome of many of the most famous battles. This Guide is intended for all people with an interest in the British sector of the Western Front and, although geological terms are included, they are kept to a minimum and those that are deemed essential are included in a glossary at the end of the guide.

North Coast of Cornwall (1970)
The North Coast of Cornwall from Bude to Tintagel (1970)
by W.R.Dearman, E.C.Freshney, A.F.King, M.Williams and M.C.McKeown
The itineraries described in this guide have been designed to illustrate the stratigraphy and structure of a long coastal tract of Devonian and Carboniferous rocks. As some aspects of the coastal structures are to be related to granite intrusion, one itinerary deals with the northern part of the Bodmin Moor granite and its envelope.

Southern Cyprus (1994) by Trevor Greensmith
This Guide is to some of the more accessible outcrops in Southern Cyprus, including those of the world famous Troodos (Troodhos) Range. It is designed to give the questing novice in the subject of Geology a glimpse of the wide variety of igneous, sedimentary and occasional metamorphic rock types and rock structures which constitute this section of the island and explain the significance of what can be seen at any given locality. Many technical names have had to be introduced which are explained in the glossary.

During the last 16 million years (up to recent times) igneous rocks with a variety of compositions have been extruded and then moved E or W of the rift valley which marks the central line of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge The ice sheets and their associated glaciers formed by the accumulation of snow over hundreds of years, occupy 11% of Iceland. The pressure on water trapped in geothermally heated cavities close to the land surface is occasionally relieved generating Geysers. The itineraries in the Guide provide a representative selection of sites of the above.

38. The Plymouth Area (1978) by D.M.Hobson
The five excursions described in this Guide are centred on the city of Plymouth, and although they are mostly concerned with Lower Devonian rocks, details of other important elements in the local Variscan geology are also included. The first three excursions deal with the stratigraphy and structure of various sections across the Dartmouth Antiform, itinerary four with the southern flanks of the Antiform and rocks of the Start Complex, and itinerary five with features exposed inland north of Plymouth.

Lleyn Peninsula (1981)
by P.J.Cattermole and M.Romano
The Lleyn Peninsular is especially known for the numerous and splendid coastal exposures of Precambrian and Lower Palaeozoic rocks. Access is relatively easy to all the thirteen itineraries described in the Guide due to the small extent of the Lleyn. The major points of interest in each of the itineraries is described together with an indication of the time required and tidal considerations.

The Chalk of Sussex and Kent (1997)
A comprehensive series of 8 inland and coastal itineraries extending from Lewes and the Newhaven-Brighton area , via Beachy Head, Folkestone and The White Cliffs of Dover, to Thanet illustrating the variable lithology and stratigraphy of England’s best-known and world-famous flint-bearing fossiliferous rock type. Examine the evidence for structural controls on chalk deposition, rhythmic sedimentation and transgressive and regressive events in this well-illustrated guide in which safety factors are fully considered.’
