Book excerpt: "This book is unique in bringing together the geological context of the region's mineral deposits, the long and varied history of mining and the role of collectors and dealers, as an essential backdrop to a celebration of the minerals themselves. Illustrated with colour photographs of some of the finest specimens in the collections of the Natural History Museum, London, with additional images from the British Geological Survey, National Museums Scotland, Edinburgh, and other related organisations, this book is an important and beautiful work of reference which will appeal equally to geologists, mineralogists and anyone with an interest in the natural heritage of Northern England."--BOOK JACKET.
