For residents of Tennessee or visitors to the state who may have little or no background in geology, Davis explains why the landscape looks like it does. Trained geologists can use the book as an introduction to Tennessee's geology. In the introduction, she explains important geologic concepts to help readers understand and appreciate Earth science, and summarizes Tennessee's geologic history. Then she presents road trip guides in the state's three Grand Divisions: the Appalachian Highlands of East Tennessee, the Interior Low Plateaus of Middle Tennessee, and the Gulf Coastal Plain of West Tennessee.
