Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Gerry Edwards is a glass artist by profession. About eight years ago he began indulging his writing skills by writing articles for some national publications, these were articles that dealt with one of his hobbies, metal detecting. Gerry wrote these articles as part of a therapy program that he devised for himself after a serious automobile accident. The metal detecting gave him physical exercise and the writing helped him regain his skills with vocabulary that he had lost. He had been told that he would never do his glasswork again and would be limited because of the neurological damage that he sustained. After many surgeries and struggles in therapy, Gerry proved them all wrong. He wrote many articles over the years and started blowing and carving glass again. Whites' Metal Detectors was so impressed with the articles that to this day they still supply him with new detectors to explore and write articles about. His glasswork is exhibited in many prestigious galleries on the west coast. Mr. Edwards is the author of three books. The children's books Candy Claws: From Claws to Claus, Candy Claws: Trick or Treat and the novel Rex.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, unless you're an underwater hunter!, December 23, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
While the author is obviously very knowledgeable and shares a number of helpful tips, this small book desperately needed an editor. The vast majority of pages is devoted to underwater detecting, which is interesting, but which probably should have been at least a subtitle. In addition, the sequencing and structure of the book is pretty odd as well.
