The Great White Mantle is a comprehensive book by David O. Woodbury that delves into the history of the Ice Ages and the evolution of mankind. The book explores the geological and environmental changes that occurred during the Ice Ages, including the formation of glaciers, the movement of continents, and the rise and fall of sea levels. It also discusses the impact of these changes on the flora and fauna of the planet, as well as the emergence of early human civilizations. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the Ice Ages and the evolution of man. The first few chapters provide a detailed overview of the geological and environmental changes that occurred during the Ice Ages, including the formation and movement of glaciers, the rise and fall of sea levels, and the impact of these changes on the planet's climate and ecosystems. The later chapters focus on the emergence of early human civilizations, including the evolution of Homo sapiens, the development of language and culture, and the spread of human populations across the globe. The book also explores the impact of human activity on the planet, including the extinction of many species and the destruction of natural habitats. Overall, The Great White Mantle is a fascinating and informative book that provides a detailed account of the Ice Ages and the evolution of mankind. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of our planet and the emergence of human civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
