Dear Sid, and others;
For some quite good reading and some really good pictures, get "The Robert A. Haag Collection Field Guide of Meteorites", they are $5 or so and
most excellent...
Shameless plug for the King.
One of my other favorites that will pull at your heart strings is "Find A Falling Star", by the late Harvey H. Nininger...it is still available
last I knew.
Good reading,
Dave (backonline) Freeman

<p>Hello list members,
<br>&nbsp;&nbsp; I am new to this list and look forward to learning about
meteorites! The
<br>only exposure I've had to buying meteorites has been a catalog sent
to me
<br>from a dealer. I'd like to learn more before buying anything and could
use
<br>some guidance. Is there an archive I can visit and/or can someone suggest
a
<br>good starting point for a beginner interested in learning more about
<br>meteorites? A book recommendation or URL would be great!
<br>Thank you,
<br>-SID!
