Hi Howard,

I bought that book last week, mainly because of William K. Hartmann's =
artwork but the text is great as well. Chapter 25 is devoted to Martian =
meteorites. Well worth the price.

  Hi list,
  Going to the corner bookstore for a coffee break I just found a cool =
new book:

  "A Traveler's Guide to Mars" by William K. Hartmann, 468pp., Workman =
Publishing (C. june 2003) ISBN 0-7611-2606-6 $18.95.=20

  some possiblities here:

  "Notice:Twenty-five percent of the royalty proceeds from this book go =
to support Mars research and publich outreach at the Planetary Science =
Institute,Tuscon, Arizona."=20

  Never hear of them, Should've I? Do any of our Tuscon people, or =
anyone else for that matter, know these guys? Showing my ignorance =
here. What do they think of us rock hounds?

  Also give me thoughts:

  "Workman books are available at special discount when purchaced in =
bulk for premiums and sales promotion as well as for fund-raising or =
educational use. Special editions or book excerpts can also be created =
to specifications."

  Anyhow lots of pictures and mars geology and geography involved. Short =
chapter on mars meteorite but had some information that I didn't =
know.(i.e. salty water on mars? )

  Has anybody else seen this book or has any list member participated =
in compiling this book?

  Howard Wu
