"Compiled from decades of visiting beaches along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts collecting fossils and conducting extensive research, A Beachcomber's Guide to Fossils is the definitive guide for amateur collectors interested in learning more about the deep history they tread upon during their vacations. The Beachcomber's Guide authored by Bob, Pam, and Ashby Gale offers over 1,200 high-quality color photographs and detailed descriptions of more than 300 fossil specimens found on beaches from Texas, east to Florida, and north to New Jersey.
