Description
Sea Shells have enchanted mankind, apparently, as far back as human records go. Their variety of shape, color, structure, texture, and modes of adaptation seems inexhaustible. Small wonder that people have always found pleasure in owning them, and artists and craftsmen have incorporated them in everything ranging from massive architecture to personal jewelry. Today the passion for shell-collecting is greater than ever, and all over the world the fraternity of collectors grows – a segment of the population which acts as though they share some special gift of nature. Sea shells, as a matter of fact, are a special gift of nature. This book shows why.
