For generations of geology students and rock hounds, Kraus, Hunt & Ramsdell's Mineralogy was the standard introduction to minerals and crystals. This is the Third Edition, Ninth Impression of that classic McGraw-Hill textbook. The text is the 1936 edition, with earlier copyright dates of 1920 and 1928. The half-title carries McGraw-Hill's note about continued postwar shortages, so this copy was printed after World War II. It would suit a mineral collector's reference shelf, a student of crystallography or a vintage science library.
