This book makes learning about crystals just as much fun as viewing them. Readers encounter a breathtaking terrain covering kinds of crystals, crystal formation, gems and gemstones, and much more. Thanks to dynamic descriptions, diagrams, and photos, the reader’s natural curiosity is firmly grounded in rock-solid information.

Research Notes
|
| “When I was a kid, I loved collecting rocks at an old lead mine near my parents’ house. I often found rocks with tiny, but beautiful, quartz crystals. Writing this book gave me a chance to really understand what I was looking at all those years ago and what I see every time I look at the engagement ring my husband gave me." |
