Description

The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, as described in Genesis, is examined under the spotlight of modern science against a cultural backdrop of geology, history and archaeology. The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, as described in Genesis, is examined under the spotlight of modern science against a cultural backdrop of geology, history and archaeology. Born in Coventry, England, Graham Harris retired to Prince Edward Island, Canada. Trained in civil engineering and engineering geology, he was engaged as a specialist consultant in mining and heavy industry. The strands of geography, geology, and engineering science, are drawn together to provide comprehensive treatment of all relevant scientific aspects pertinent to a rational understanding of the mechanics of the disaster. The detailed scientific argument follows a discussion of the Genesis account and considerations of Canaanite culture and commerce, with specific attention to the trade in bitumen.
