Hello,
We are very proud to present you this new project. A general guide to minerals with old classic localities and updated with new finds, in French. 608 pages and more than 2000 photos (by Jeff Scovil and Louis-Dominique Bayle) and hard cover (24 x 17 cm). To make this project concrete, and in order to be able to sell it the better price (less than 40 €), we put in place a participative financing with Ulule (see the link below). Thank you, very, very much, for your support.

I already participate via Ulule in this project. I strongly encourage to all FMFers to participate also in this initiative.
Knowing the Le Règne Minéral team I'm sure that this book will be great! 😋

The language barrier stopped me from going forward on this. I’m unsure of the process.

| Converts to approx. $46.10 USD. I might buy it for the pictures, but can't read it. How do we order one in the U. S. and shipping?

You do need to be able to read French. So see if you have a French-speaking friend who can help you

Thanks. When it asks me to create a password I don't need an account. I just want to help prepay so the book can be finished.

You do need a valid account to help prepay.
This is done via the "S'inscrire" option
(1) create a username
(2) type in an email address
(3) create a password
(4) acknowledge you are over 18

Like Gail, I tried to order and failed.
I also tried sending an email to the address shown but that "bounced back" as undeliverable.
I'll try again later today
It's a shame that there is no telephone contact listed (like most websites these days)!
Cheers

It worked for me, no problem (but then I read French). Happy to help if I can - PM me and we can work out how
Deadline to be a backer of the book is the 19th January

Just spotted something very useful
At the very bottom of the page on the left, it says 'Francais' in a small box. Click on that and set it to 'English' and the bulk of the text will be in English!
If you want the book, when you select the option you want chose:
Le livre "Minéraux - le guide des passionnés" sera offert avec la dédicace personnalisé de l'auteur.
This is the leather bound copy:
Le Livre "Minéraux - le guide du passionné" avec la dédicace personnalisée de l'auteur en édition de prestige unique.

Sometimes the desires become reality and more rarely the reality exceeds the desires. In this book it happened exactly the second case. I have been reading it this weekend and I was very impressed. Mixing Julien's passion with the photographic skill of Louis-Dominique was a safe bet but the result is even better than I expected.
Congratulations to them both. That nobody who has notions of French language miss this book, is extraordinary!
PS: To buy it (40 €) you should use: Minéraux – Le guide des Passionnés – Julien Lebocey
