GOLD BIBLIOGRAPHY
Because of
the rich history and universal appeal of gold, there is an immense
and ever-increasing body of literature devoted to this noble metal.
A comprehensive bibliography would, therefore, be far too extensive
for the purposes of this website. The books listed below are representative
of this body of literature, and will provide a collection of works
to assist those wishing to learn more about the history, production,
and uses of gold.
