Rockhound's Guide to California (Rockhound Guide Series) by Gail A. Butler. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781560443476.

Although known for its gold production, California is a virtual haven for rock and gem collectors.

The Rockhounds Guide to California describes 75 of the states best rockhounding sites, and covers the popular and commercial sites as well as numerous little-known areas. This handy guide describes how to collect specimens, includes maps and directions to each site, and lists rockhound clubs around the state. The Rockhounds Guide to California offers a complete introduction to this many-faceted hobby and is an outstanding guide and sourcebook.
