Comprehensive and Highly Visual
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The Encyclopedia of Gemstones and Minerals by MARTIN HOLDEN, is one of the most satisfactoring reference book that I have read. Holden professionally combined visual elements and highly detailed information in this reference book. What makes this encyclopedia special is that the readers can easily find whatever they need to find without searching the index or reading the whole table of contents! Everything is alphabetical! If You need to find anything about crystal systems, what you need to do is just to check the letter "c". What you need is always there... And one other thing: You will be fascinated when you see the beautiful detailed pictures and highly informative text.
