Book Description:

In northeastern Wyoming, a strange rock formation towers eerily over its surroundings. This place plays a significant part in many Native American legends. It became known as Devils Tower and was later named the first US national monument. Readers will be engaged by the history of Devils Tower and will be particularly interested in how it formed 65 million years ago as a result of volcanic activity. Today, it's still a sacred space as well as a challenging location for rock climbers.
