Recommended Rockhounding Books For The Traveler
Rockin' Around Montana
by Phil Walsh
Great book written by a local rockhound and self taught mineralogist. The book includes maps of all the rockhounding sites he has personally visited along information & quality of the material in that area.
We found this book more accurate and helpful than the Falcon Press Montana Rockhounding.
Phil teaches mineral identificaiton classes, president of both state and local gem & mineral societies and has written articles for the Northwest Mining Journal.
