A video presentation of paleogeography using a set of globe maps and basic anmination techniques highlighting audio content. The presentation is formatted as a picture style audio book. This version is revised from a previously uploaded version, edited to include basic animations. It is Part II of a four part series which addresses plate tectonics theory (Part I), The Ocena Basins (Part III), and the Continents (Part IV).
