She Sells Seashells Press

This is a LIMITED HARDCOVER EDITION with only 500 hardcover copies produced. Each book is individually numbered and signed by the author and the collaboraters. "Out of my Shell" is, by Peter Dance is a new book by the author of "A History of Shell Collecting","Rare Shells", and co authorhed the best selling "Compendium of Seashells". Peter Says in his Forward, " For many years I have accumulated notes connected in some way or other with molluscs and their shells, intending to use them in articles or books, but most have remained unpublished in any form. Now I have edited some of them, ading occasional dashes of autobiography and some illustrations." He dscusses the forms and colours of shells and tells stories about rareites, such as the golden cowry and the glory-of-the-sea-cone. He investigates shells in fiction, shells with royal connections, and places named after shells. Striking a more sombre note, he explains how an album of shell watercolours, destined for a London auction, made him overlook 9/11, and describes how illegal Chinese immigrants died while hunting for cockles. An entertaining assortment of photos and drawings, several of them the Author's own work, enchance the appeal to this unique book.
