Amber Listserv / New book on amber

[tamber12 at aol.com]

Way to go, Wolfgang!? He printed it in English!!!



We had many email discussions years back about his book Plants and Animals in Baltic Amber, and whether or not to do an English version.? He learned!!!

This looks great, I might have to get one for myself.

Hello Folks,

at the Amberif Fair, Ulf Erichson (Director, German Amber Museum Ribnitz- Damgarten) and Dr. Wolfgang Weitschat (Geological- Paleontological Institute & Museum, University of Hamburg) presented their new book: Baltic Amber; Origin, deposits, inclusions. Amber in art and cultural history.
Exhibition Catalogue, German Amber Museum, Ribnitz- Damgarten, 2008

Very neat book, the natural history part covered by dr. Weitschat and the cultural history by Ulf Erichson. Lots of color pictures, reproductions of old maps and art. Interesting presentation of amber origins, science and beauty of inclusions. And the museum collections, artist profiles, treasure finds descriptions.
It can be ordered thru the museum's website, although it is not shown in their listing yet.
