Sinossi
A wonderful introduction to the diversity of marine shells and the hobby of collecting them... an excellent place to start learning about seashells and their classification.
-- American Reference Books Annual
Great gift book for beachcombers and seashell collectors. Highly recommended as a book to be used rather than merely perused.

- Detailed color picture of the shell
- Shell size
- Distribution and locations
