I saw this book in the store and really liked it because of the pictures they have in it but it was too much so I checked for it on and it was a lot cheaper so I got it. It's a very good agate guide.

This book has all the information needed for beginning or long time agate hunters. The advice and the pictures were extremely helpful. I would highly recommend this big to agate/rock collectors.

An easy book to read and get me started agate hunting!! Pictures are awesome and I look forward to hunting

Very good basic information agate hunting book. Just what I was looking for. Not too complicated for a newbie. Very good, real life pictures.

We loved this book. Very informative, easy to read and follow. The descriptions and pictures were very helpful to identify agates.

This is a nice book. Easy to read and understand. I thought it would be a little bit bigger, but it is still a lovely publication with great information. I am happy I bought it.

There are so many agates where we live, and this book facilitates the identification process. Perfect!

A neat little book that gives a good introduction to agate hunting in the Great Lakes area.
