An Impressive Book

The Sea Glass Chronicles: Whispers From the Past, caught my eye while searching Amazon's books for something a bit different. An avid beach lover, I enjoy walking the beaches nearby, as well as other beaches while vacationing within the US and/or other countries. I've always had a passion for unusual treasures from the calming sea.

This books is so so beautiful, and was written by an artisan. The illustrations are gorgeous and so very captivating. All photos were captured by a professional photographer. The true stories about the origins of some of the unusual pieces featured, made for great reading. This is not a reference book that will tell you where to find the best sea glass, so if that is what you are looking for, this is not the book for you.

If you are looking for a beautiful coffee table book with gorgeous photos and a history to tell as well, this one will not disappoint. This book would make a great gift for most beach lovers or sea glass collectors.

I couldn't put it down!

Last night I opened Sea Glass Chronicles to read a few pages, but found I couldn't put it down! This lovely book is a treasure, just like the "treasures" it describes in each chapter. After a few pages, I realized that Pat Hanbery's photographs were amazing as well! Enjoyable on several levels, it's a "coffee table" book that any age would enjoy simply for the browsing, but the writing and research by C.S. Lambert will take you much, much deeper into this hobby enjoyed by nearly everyone: beachcombing! It is an educational trip through the archaeology of beach glass, pottery, and doll fragments, caught in time before they were all altered by water's relentless task of reducing them into sand particles on a beach. Although there is a great deal of information, it is presented in quickly-readable short stories. This is a real "keeper" as well as a good gift idea.
