Geology Identification guide

Excellent book. Clear photos and info useful to the identification of rocks and minerals. Not a book for small children. This was a hard back book and had the same exact information and layout as the smaller sized paperback titled Rock and Minerals listed as a Smithsonian Handbook. Both published by DK. Both of course by the same author.

Rock Lovers, This Will Rock Your World!

My wife is a rock-a-holic and a half and I thought about getting her a book about rocks for her birthday. While examining the various offerings that are out there, this one stood above the rest. A detailed description including photos was the biggest draw and you should have seen her scouring through the pages with her rock collection -- she was like a kid in a candy store! If you love collecting rocks, then you owe it to yourself to get this book.
