Reviews" This field guide to Texas shells is the right size and it is wonderfully concise. It includes every common shell a beach comber is likely to find. Each shell is presented in a full color image, most with multiple views, and many with close up views of important features. The color photographs are clear and sharply focused - easy to use. This field guide is clear, consise, expertly written and illustrated, and easy to use. This is a lot of book for the dollar and can obviously be used for areas other than Texas. Buy it." -- American Conchologist, "If you're planning a trip to the Gulf Coast this summer, you might want to consult this field guide."-- The Eagle
