THE CURIOUS LORE OF PRECIOUS STONES by George Frederick Kunz

Published by J. B. Lippincott Company in 1913
This is a fascinating study of man's compelling attraction to precious stones including in folk lore, medicine, religion, and zodiacal. The book is in good condition; the spine is tight, although cracked at the title page, and the covers are clean with minor scuffing and/or bumping. The pages are clear and sharp with minor fading. The previous owner's name is on the end paper. There is no dust jacket. See the photographs.
This is a wonderful book, and it would be an excellent addition to anyone's book collection.
