Description
Sea shells are a special gift of nature and this book shows why. Authors Marguerite and Hugh Stix were the founders and directors of the Stix Rare Shell Gallery of New York and traveled to every corner of the globe in quest of shells and shell lore. With the collaboration of R. Tucker Abbott, who held the Pilsbry Chair of Malacology at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, they created one of the most beautiful and revealing presentations of sea shells ever published.
