The book is informative, but does not include much detail about the different locations. Kind of disappointing in that respect.

Informative book about the southern states helps Rockhounds to find new places to dig. I have used the book several times.

My husband is a gem hunter. He thinks this is one of the best books that he has gotten. And he has a lot of books. Thanks Amazon.

Was hoping for much more. Frankly, there is nothing here that you cannot find for free elsewhere. A number of states in the region have some good collecting sites that are not mentioned at all. As other reviews noted, this is oriented only to the fee for collecting areas. Very poor. Gave it one star because I could not give it zero stars.

Flower

Too many museums and too little real data on real search areas. Basically useless as a field guide. Spend more and get the bigger guide.

Majin

Good reference book...not great.

I thought, or was hoping, that this would be a guide to non-commercial or more esoteric spots for rock-hounding. Instead this reads more like a travel guide given out by AAA. I wouldn't recommend this to any one if they had any other choices.
