Book Summary
This is a book that can be used anywhere in the world and is complete enough to satisfy the demands of the amateur and even assist the professional. A generous use of photographs--262 of them, 77 in full color--and the simplified Field Guide approach to identification have made it possible to compress an enormous body of information on rocks and minerals into the Field Guide format.When it was first published in 1953 it was welcomed by reviewers all across the country as the most practical and comprehensive book of its kind.
