let me tell you, it is the best book i have ever read. It covers all the basics of metal detecting. i am saying that you should get the book now while you still can!!

The author has written a helpful little book for beach hunters. The writing goes straight to the point in each section. The bibliography is also useful. I recommend this book to anyone interested in beach hunting. It is worth mentioning that the book gives the reader the location of numerous Florida sites which is very useful if you are considering hunting there.

Good luck!

This book does what the others have mentioned; it covers all of the basics and is to the point. Other books detail locations much better but again the book is not designed to be in depth. He references those books like Hurricane Treasure. My only worry was when I got to the part about detecting the Treasure Coast at high tide looking for treasure. I have talked to many people and done my research and nowhere else have I read to detect the high tide and chase the waves back in. He then goes on to mention to be cautious when waves are high and that it's fun detecting wet sand when it's not windy. Metal detectors LOVE high winds including nor'easters and hurricanes for the best chance at finding treasure and providing the cuts he had just finished mentioning. You can't love cuts and hate the winds that provide them... Maybe he got a bad reference here or maybe he is right, you decide.
