Required Text for Sedimentary & Stratigraphy

This was a required textbook for an sedimentary and structures undergrad geology class. The images are black and white, but the book is still useful.

Well-written, informative sediment and stratigraphy text

This is a very good, thorough, and informative text that covers all the basics of sedimentology and stratigraphy. It is frequently used as a textbook in such classes, including when I took it at Baylor University. It is easy to understand, well-organized, and very clear.
