A small, encyclopedia type guide for easy referencing of crystals and their predominant locations.
While this is exactly what it claims to be, I was disappointed to note that a lot of the more common gemstones and crystals used in jewelry making were not listed here. However, many of the more rare, expensive-grade types were.

I feel the same about this book as many others here. Although it has very limited information about each stone he has certainly covered a lot.
I have and talked to the author when I lived in Germany and was, and still am very impressed by him.
I would have liked an update of his book "Crystal Power, Crystal Healing" which is excellent.
Still as I said a lovely book and well worth buying.

Comprehensive but could use a little more description of the characteristics of each crystal.
