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.

Behind the Book

“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.”
