## Description

This is a fabulous photographic guide to the world of rocks and minerals, as well as how to build your own collection. Expertly written text describes the impact of factors such as time, weather and water erosion on the development of these substances, and the part played by natural phenomena such as volcanoes and earthquakes. Specimens are grouped according to their chemical composition and characteristics, and all entries include quick-reference identification checklists to aid recognition. Featuring over 800 images, this book is a one-stop illustrated encyclopedia and field guide on an endlessly fascinating and richly consuming subject.

Review: Great book - Absolutely loving this book so far. It is extremely informative and not overwhelming with information ( as much as I want to learn, too much too soon can be daunting). Great pictures and I love that the pages are glossy. This a hardcover made to last.
Review: In-depth reading - Item arrived on time, well packaged, no issues. Item was purchased to help indulge my interest in Geology along with being used to accent my "Blockhead" collection of assorted odds and ends (see photos). Item is "hardback" that contains color photos, color graphics, color illustrations and a Glossary in the back which gives a detailed, in-depth description of all of the samples discussed in the book. Basically, it is an Encyclopedia about Rocks & Minerals ! There's a lot of information about "Rocks" in this book..."Chuck".
