Book Reviews of World of Fluorescent Minerals (Schiffer Book for Collectors)
Book Review: A must-have for serious Franklin-Sterling Hill collectors
Summary: 5 Stars
I greatly enjoyed this book. It is Stuart Schneider's second book on this subject and even better than the first. The ability to identify these minerals in daylight and then have the fluorescent response next to the photo is a huge advantage. You almost want to take the book out with you in the field (I usually keep it in my truck when I am collecting).I have met Mr. Schneider personally while on collecting trips and he is a great guy and a true Franklin-Sterling collector. Keep up the good work Stuart!!!
