The best way to describe it is probably to quote the Foreword: "It started as an idle conversation while soaking up the sun of Tucson in early February 2000. We had gone through most of the Show and seen hundreds of meteorites, some well known and some nearly unknown, and we were wishing aloud for some form of reference material to help our flagging memories. Our copies of the Catalogue of Meteorites were way too valuable and heavy to take on the road. Since I also collect minerals I had a copy of the Glossary of Mineral Species and wished I could find something as easy to carry around and thumb through on the fly." "Then Mike mentioned that he had about 1000 meteorites in a database in his computer at home." "The rest, as they say, is history....... " And the result is the book we are presenting to you today. - Title: Meteorites from A to Z - Introduction to meteorites written by Dr. Alain Carion. - All 3317 named meteorites (as of Dec. 31, 2000), except unumered Antarctica, in a Dictionary format, with classification, date of find or fall and location, TKW. - Tables of all classified, numbered meteorites from the Sahara and Oman - 3 indexes: chronological, geographical, and by classification. - 250 pages, half-page format, wire-bound with a great cover. See our sites for a few sample pages. All this for the super affordable price of $19.95 (plus shipping).
