Dear Rob,

Welcome to Conch-L.

I'm not sure just what book you are referring to.  I'm not aware of a recent
volume by an author named Crouch.  Are you referring to E.A. Crouch's 1897
work, "An Illustrated Introduction to Lamarck's Conchology"?  If so, a
volume in good shape will run about $1,000.00.  Check www.bookfinder.com
