Daniel suggested:
<<< If I might suggest a book, see if you can find "the Scallop,
Studies of a
shell and its influences on humankind." Published in London by the
Shell
Transport and Trading Company 1957. Eight Authors. The chapters are
Shell:
a Word's Pedigree, The Living Scollop, A Symbol of Ancient Times, The
Badge
of St. James, The Cradle of Venus, Escollops in Armory, An Excursion
into
the Americas and The Scollop at the Table. >>>
Thank you, Daniel.
I just checked Amazon, not expecting this book to be available or at
least not at a price I could afford at this time. But I found used
copies (since it was printed in 1957, new copies are probably not
available anyway) for $1.98 on up depending upon the condition. So I
ordered a copy. So anyone else who might have been thinking about
getting this book might go look.
The book was cheaper, including shipping, than the scallops i've seen
for sale. Lol.
I was surprised that the poster of this book recommendation wasn't
Johnna. "The Librarian". :-)
