3-0 out of 5 stars No images in kindle
I bought this book yesterday. This was my first kindle purchase. I downloaded it to my Mac using their app. So far the book is good.

The images don't show however... that's very disappointing. If I'm doing something wrong, please let me know. If I can fix this then I'll update the rating accordingly.

3-0 out of 5 stars Metal Detecting for the Beginner
Based on the reviews I had hoped for more but the book's content on the subject of metal detecting is very basic and left me wanting more. The book does provide numerous references to other good resources, books, web site, magazines, etc... for the details the book lacks. The binding on the copy I received was not done very well and pages are falling out after just a couple of days reading, but maybe that's just my copy. This is definitely a book for someone that has no idea what metal detecting is about and as an over view on that subject I would say it provides the information to get you started and were to go to find more information.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellant book for a new hobby !
Enjoyed reading this book.
Covers things you might have over looked, when in the field.
Makes you want to discover more.

5-0 out of 5 stars European Metal Detecting Guide
This is a very good book for anyone interested in Metal Detecting.
It has interesting information on techniques, tips and lots of photos of european treasures, people have found. It does lean towards the use of the Garrett detectors which is ok with me because I have had one ( Grand Master Hunter CX II ) for 20 years. Also, it is a well made book as all
the 295 pages are glossy, which show a lot of details when it comes to viewing the many photos it contains. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
The invention of metal detecting technology during the Second World War allowed the development of a hobby that has traditionally been vilified by archaeologists as an uncontrollable threat to the proper study of the past. This book charts the relationship between archaeologists and metal detectors over the past fifty odd years within an international context. It questions whether the great majority of metal detectors need be seen as a threat or, as some argue, enthusiastic members of the public with a valid and legitimate interest in our shared heritage, charting the expansion of metal detecting as a phenomena and examining its role within traditional archaeology. A particular strength of the book is its detailed case studies, from South Africa, the USA, Poland and Germany, where metal detectors have worked with, and contributed significantly towards, archaeological understanding and research. With contributions from key individuals in both the metal detecting and archaeological communities, this publication highlights the need for increased understanding and cooperation and asks a number of questions crucial to the development of a long term relationship between archaeologists and metal detectors. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars entertaining and some education
This book entertains while also teaching you about places and situations for coin and relic hunting that you might not have otherwise considered. I found the tales of past hunts almost riveting and you probably will too, if you are interested in treasure hunting. Especially interesting information about ghost towns, ball fields, and homesteads in the midwest. Numerous pictures of relics and coins and lots of pictures of tokens. The author has much experience treasure hunting in areas that saw activity many years ago and those places are interesting to read about.The book could have used more editing but for this kind of book I found that just adds to the character of the author and the book. ...

This product was ordered for my son who loves metal detecting...he was thrilled when he could get help with his passion! Quick ship, arrived is great shape he said.Thanks

5-0 out of 5 stars An unacknowledged master of the short story
Fred Bonnie riffs on the writers who have influenced him.Each story is dedicated to a different author, everybody from O. Henry to Harry Crews, from Sarah Orne Jewett to Bernard Malamud, from Truman Capote to Jack Kerouac -- and none of the dedicatees is dishonored by the comparison.In these varied and thoughtful stories you'll meet such characters as a thirteen-year-old who "was once father to forty babies," a Crimson Tide Christian girl with an unusual litmus test for lovers, a drunken bank janitor brandishing a "magnificent two-hand, six-foot-long German sword from the fifteenth century," a man driving his dead brother from Alabama to Maine, and three liquored-up good ol' boys whose job is cleaning snake cages at the zoo.This is a good, solid collection of short stories by an unacknowledged master of the form, short stories that feature humor, heartbreak, and wisdom in equal parts."Next to reading, drinking, and watching TV all at once, the surest sign of maturity is wisdom." ...
