This review is from: The Story of the Gems (Paperback)
This is a reprint of a much older book, a classic which tells tales about each of the gems we still know and love today, as well as some which are not as common. The book is a true copy, and looks like someone put the old book on a photocopier and copied the pages as they were, old-fashioned, hard to read typeface and all. And that's my only gripe. The content of this book is amazing, and it's as applicable today as it was when it was first published. I wish that the people who reprinted it had cleaned up the pictures and used a better typeface, but I found the material valuable enough to give it a good try and read it regardless.

It was well worth it. I think you'll feel the same way as you read stories that you'll never forget, but don't trust me. This book is remarkably inexpensive, so I'd take a look for myself.
