The Drainage of Cuestas is a book written by William Morris Davis in 1899. It is a geological study of the drainage patterns of cuestas, which are elongated ridges with a steep slope on one side and a gentle slope on the other. The book examines the formation of cuestas and their drainage systems, focusing on the role of erosion and sedimentation in shaping the landscape. Davis presents a detailed analysis of the drainage patterns of cuestas in various regions of the United States, including the Great Plains, the Appalachian Mountains, and the Rocky Mountains. He also discusses the economic and ecological implications of cuesta drainage, including the impact on agriculture and water resources. The Drainage of Cuestas is considered a seminal work in the field of geomorphology and has had a significant influence on the study of landforms and landscape evolution.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
