This fat book is a very good guide for shells of the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts, and the West Indies. It is full of information! You will find of each shell the following: name, range (where to be found), habitat, description, remarks (special notes to some cases).There is a very interesting introduction.

There are many pictures, in full color all of them. They are all in the middle of the book, not acompanying each description, as I expected. Anyway, it is a great guide, one that will help you very well with any information you need.

Lack of colored pictures. Very informative. Super guide for scuba divers and naturalists as well as shell collectors.

My best and most thorough guide to shells but the black and white photos could use some updating, also because of the large range this book covers it might have been nice to have range maps for the individual species next to their name on the plate this would help narrow down between similar species without having to flip to the reference pages so frequently. I would have given this a 4/5 star rating but gave it a 5/5 because I felt the need to compensate for Daniel J. Knight's ridiculous review: "Evolution pseudo science babble"

Thanks!

I was wanting to know the names of various shells that I gather for my crafts, and this did help. I only wished that there were more of the pictures in color, not mostly black and white.

This was purchased as a gift. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I would recommend this vendor.

Contains three references promoting evolution, WHICH IS POINTLESS except to gain acceptance and more money from Christian-hating Darwinists and to bash Christians. Too bad it's tainted. Awww look at all the angry anti-Christians and deluded evolutionists and atheists. Morons. "we must vote this down, how dare he point out our vanity and expose pour delusion and tell everyone we're leading people to Hell and promoting rape and immortality by pretending there's no God and that he just lets things go on and on for billions of years without batting an eye lash." Turn to God already or forever be known as "sickos".
