BOOK-PURPLE

The complete story of the Fourth of July Amethyst Pocket and other great adventures.

In the Summer of 1993, I and two friends found something, something astounding, something that changed the gemological history of the state of Maine, America and the world. On the last weekend in June of that year, we discovered the Fourth of July Amethyst Pocket on a small mountain in Western Maine. The full account has never been told until now.

This is the story of the largest gem discovery in Maine's history, the tale of a most epic adventure and of the path through life that led to it. This is the full account of an incredible event, the stuff of dreams and legends, of fantasies literally come true.

It is my privilege and pleasure to present my self published saga of this wondrous experience: "Mining, Treasure Hunting and the Pursuit of Purple: The complete story of the Fourth of July Amethyst Pocket and other great adventures."

Soft cover, 203 pages with 38 photos of mining, Amethyst specimens, gems and jewelry.
