Read from January 21 to 24, 2011
From the first chapter, I felt like the author was trying to describe a forest by telling us about some interesting trees he'd seen. I never really shook that feeling. There is a lot of interesting information in the book, but I have no idea how comprehensive it is. Certainly a lot of the details are skipped. However, it is a fine introduction to the big picture of how the continents formed and change over time.
