It is the introductory material that I found interesting in this title, especially the diagrams of the Gastropoda shell and in particular the bivalve shells showing the anterior parts with identifications
The info on the conch shell was informative. Otherwise unless you are a World traveler this title is not the best shell guide. I found this book in a midwestern library far from a beach and it is not really appropriate for their collection.
