Sorry Dennis, I have no intention to "think snow". In fact I can't wait to
be in nice warm sunny Tucson!
And if You want to think snow, come on over, and bring a shovel!
 
And thank you to those of you who corrected my error. Yes the title of the
book is indeed "Field Guide to Meteors and Meteorites" by O. Richard Norton.
Certainly a great book by someone who left us way too soon.
 
Have a nice evening!

Como esta? Anne and List Richard's book will always be a standard.
I recently bought Caroline Smith, Sara Russell and Gretchen Benedix's
new book "Meteorites". These gals "Drs" put together a great book for
those with the slightest interest in meteorites. It's basic and
very easy to read. Loads of great pictures too. I also like Kevin Kichinka's
"The Art of Collecting Meteorites". Now, if you aren't a "Newbie" you
will love McSween's "Meteorites and Their Parent Planets". I use my copy
to fill up the shelf! But, what a Great Hobby, no matter what some say.
Have A Great Day! Sorry Anne but, Think Snow!!!
Dennis
