Rocks: A Guide to the Stones Around Us and the Stories They Tell


Overview

What is that pebble you've just picked up and what can it reveal about the story of the Earth? Vojta Hybl is on a mission to help us identify the everyday rocks we find under our feet and to reveal their often remarkable stories. From helping amateur rock hounds - or just those out on a good walk - to identify the stones they come across, to aiding our understanding of the physical landscapes around us, he's busy making geology accessible, fascinating and fun.
