Reviews
"The superb, full-color photos (over 100), eminently readable text, and attractive format on high-quality paper make this a stunning production. Recommended."--Library Journal (starred review), "The Wilderness Underground is the finest work on Missouri caves to come along since Luella Agnes Owen, a geologist from St. Joseph published her explorations in 1898. . . . The Wilderness Underground is a history lesson, a geography lesson, a bit of biology and a random sampling of history rolled into one easy-on-the-eyes book. It's a long-overdue look at one reason Missouri is such an interesting state."--Rural Missouri, "A spectacular, general interest book on the karst geology of the Ozark Mountains of Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Kansas. Weaver . . . describes the land, cave formation, groundwater, cave life for the lay reader. His text is splendidly embellished by some 110 of the best detailed and most aesthetic color plates of cave formation ever published."--Scitech Book News

Synopsis
With more than 100 full-color photographs, The Wilderness Underground lifts the veil of darkness from the spectacular beauty of the Ozark caves. Master photographers capture primitive cavescapes of water-sculpted rock forms, pits, canyons, streams, and living creatures both sighted and blind. H. Dwight Weaver's engaging text explores the diverse topography of the Ozark Plateau. Weaver traces the mystique of caves from the days of Native American Indians to the 1950s when modern cave explorers began the great cave quest that has led to the discovery of more than 6,000 caves in the region and introduces the reader to past and present denizens of the Ozark caves.

    The book arrived quickly and in good condition. It was sealed in plastic and packaged well. The seller took a while to get back to me when I first messaged them, but did ultimately reply. I would buy from this seller again.
