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.

Isle of Man (2001) The Geology of the Isle of Man by Trevor D. Ford, David Burnett and David Quirk
The aim of the guide is to help professional and interested amateur geologists to investigate the rocks themselves and to put them in a modern scientific context. The guide provides an overview of the geology of the island and describes excursions to specific locations with a wide variety of geological features, mostly easily accessible on the foreshore.

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.

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.

The Geology of London
Compiled by Diana Clements (2010)
The new Guide to the Geology of London has chosen ten Itineraries from within the M25 to provide snapshots of the rocks underlying London. It aims to cover all the rocks types that outcrop within the area. It describes several SSSIs including Harefield, Charlton, Abbey Wood, and Quaternary sites in east London. Chalk is described from the magnificent quarry at Riddlesdown, Croydon as well as underground at Chislehurst and Pinner. Geomorphology walks and the Geological Illustrations of Crystal Palace Park are also described. It is a multi-authored guide drawing on the best authority for the locations chosen.

Isle of Arran (1989) 2nd Edition by W.S.McKerrow and F.B.Atkins
The large variety of igneous and sedimentary rocks to be seen on the excellent coastal and island exposures, perhaps excelling any other area in the world has made the Isle of Arran so popular with geologists. The guide has been written assuming a very basic knowledge of geology on the part of the reader. After an extensive introduction to the geology of Arran the six excursions are described together with geological sketch maps. Each excursion can be carried out in seven to eight hours with an indication of a suitable lunch stop!

The Yorkshire Coast (1992) by P.F.Rawson & J.K.Wright
The Yorkshire coast provides magnificent exposures of Jurassic and Cretaceous rocks. The coastal area is now firmly established as a standard for comparison with both the less well exposed areas inland and also for the offshore North Sea basins. Although there has been serious overcollecting from many of the best known coastal sites , excellent specimens can be picked up loose at many of the localities described.

Dalradian of Scotland
Jack Treagus (2009)
The Dalradian Supergroup of mainland Scotland occupies most of the area generally known as the Grampian Highlands, geographically bounded by the Great Glen Fault to the north and the Highland Border Fault to the south. The Dalradian of Scotland offers the greatest variety of metamorphic rocks to be found in the British Isles. There are sedimentary rocks ranging in composition from limestones and mudstones to conglomerates, often with beautifully preserved sedimentary structures providing evidence of the depositional environments.

Costa Blanca, Spain (1990)
An attractive mountainous terrain of varied Triassic to Quaternary geology differing from that of northern Europe and characterised by impressive Alpine-movement (Betic) structures. Some 18 very well illustrated and explained excursions in the vicinity of Benidorm and Alicante give an insight into the fascinating geological history of the area. Car transport is required.

Geology of the Manchester Area (1991)
by R.M.C.Eagar & F.M.Broadhurst
The rocks exposed in the Manchester area range in age from Dinantian (Lower Carboniferous) to Triassic and superficial coverings of Pleistocene and Recent sediments. Of the sixteen itineraries described, two are devoted to Dinantian, five to the Silurian, four to the Triassic and three to the Pleistocene and Recent. The last two intineraries are concerned with mineralisation and mining and with the building stones of Manchester
