Bird, Christopher.
The Divining Hand. The 500-Year Old Mystery of Dowsing.
New York; E.P. Dutton: 1979. First edition. The art of searching for water, oil, minerals, and other natural resources or anything lost, missing or badly needed. The author is a dowser himself, so the text has a definite "pro-dowsing" stance, but the historical survey is very interesting, as is the discussion of 20th century dowsers. Hardcover. 8.5"x11", 340 pages, b/w and line illustrations, dj; a nice copy in a lightly soiled jacket.
