This book and the other shell books from China as well as being excellent quality works are also very low in price. In this book though it looks like they had some problems with the black background causing the plates to be somewhat dark. The photos are well defined and identification of the shells is not a problem. They could not be produced in the USA or anywhere else and sold for the prices that carry. I hope that this and the other books from China that we are offering become somewhat well received. If the sales are even modestly successful we intend to bring in many other books from China and from Taiwan that we can offer you. If you want to compare prices I found this book available on Biblio.com for about $187.00!
