> Strange Sea Shells and Their Stories by A. Hyatt Verrill  1936

This is a rather quaint book, with some misinformation due to its
publication before more was known about some of the shells. It's interesting
to read for the point of view of the time. Verrill worked at Yale and his
material is there - poorly curated, unfortunately.
