I bought this book for my grandma about 5 or 6 years ago. Its a VERY SMALL book. fits in your pocket, but definatly worth reading. basic info on every gem on the planet.but if you want detailed, page after page long info on a certain rare gem- this is not the book. this is just a gorgeous simple overview.
