The World of Shells
Petite hardcover book by Robert Scase with photographs by Eric Storey, published in 1975. First edition, 106 pages.
A richly illustrated introduction to the diversity and beauty of shells, this volume presents over one hundred species in vivid color, capturing their intricate forms, textures, and luminous surfaces. Both scientific and accessible, it moves between natural history and visual study revealing shells as artifacts of evolution, design, and quiet wonder drawn from oceans, rivers, and shorelines around the world.
“More than specimens, these are small architectures of time, spiraled, ridged, and impossibly precise, shaped by millions of years yet held in the palm of a hand.”
