1: A Field Guide to Rocks and Minerals
A Field Guide to Rocks and Minerals
An excellent book for the novice geologist. This book came highly recommended on other geologist sites.

2: good resource
This particular "rock identificatin book" is pretty good. The photos of samples are good and in color. However, it is not a comprehensive as our earth science instructor had hoped. On the whole, it is a good text for beginners.

3: Rocks and Minerals
I found it to be very helpful for my students since we don't always have an opportunity to get out and actually see these rocks, etc.

4: Pough's Field Guide to Rocks and Minerals
It has been some time since I have had a copy of this well written book and having now obtained the latest edition I have found it to be of the same high standard as the earlier editions. The old copy that I used to own was a hard copy version and was bounded in a more secure way than this latest edition which seems to be glued together. The result being that one page has already come loose and it is most likely to be an ongoing problem. But the contents of the book itself is of a high standard.

5: Bought it for my 8-yr old
I bought this book for my 8-year old daughter who is really into gems. It is really too old for her, and has few pictures. I'm sure it is fine for someone older.
