Minerals and Rocks by
Dr. J. Kourimsky - $3
Rocks and mineral
have always held a dual appeal for man –as objects of fascinations and beauty
and for their historic and scientific interest.
The four hundred photographs in this encyclopedia are therefore both a
visual pleasure in themselves and also an essential mean of identification. The text describes for the layman and the
collector the many aspects or rocks and minerals – formation, location, history,
cultural and technological uses.
Marginal notes list the physical and chemical characteristics of the
mineral and line drawing illustrate their structures.
Hard cover, good condition,
dust cover torn and cover page loose.
