Re: [meteorite-list] Geoff's book
Listees, I agree the photography is excellent (wink wink) I am only kidding around. I just said that because me and my lovely friend Suzanne are the star photographers :) It really is an awesome book though, all kidding aside ;>) Love you guys!

Re: [meteorite-list] Geoff's book
Dear Walter and Laurence: Thank you for the kind compliments about my new book. As some of you know, I have been a writer for many years and my published work has focused on meteoritics, paleontology, and the arts. While there are a number of excellent reference works on meteorites by our late friend Richard Norton and others, until recently there was no guide to meteorite hunting. One of the most frequent requests we receive as a result of the "Meteorite Men" series is: "I want to look for meteorites, how do I start?" My book is an attempt to answer that question. As Walter noted, this is primarily an entry-level work, and you old pros will already be familiar with much of its content. To widen the appeal, I hired my very talented photographer, Suzanne Morrison to take a series of studio photographs to illustrate the characteristics of fusion crust, orientation, chondrules, flow lines, regmaglypts, etc., and the book is also peppered with numerous photos from both seasons of "Meteorite Men," as well as various anecdotes from the road. Our good friends Nancy and Dr. Larry Lebofsky, late of "Meteorite" magazine, did a superb job of editing the book, and I was honored to have an introduction written for me by Chris Cokinos, of "The Fallen Sky" fame. "Meteorite Hunting" can be ordered online at: http://meteoritehunters.tv If any List members would like their copy signed and/or personalized, just let me know and I will be happy to oblige. Thank you for your interest and best wishes from a grey and blustery Tucson, Geoff N. www.aerolite.org www.meteoritemen.com www.meteoritehunters.tv __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] Geoff's book
Hello Everyone, I just received Geoff's book. I like it. The book is written for novices but it has a place on any meteorite collector's shelf. I particularly like the glossy pages with wonderful pictures. The pictures of Geoff and Geoff and Steve hunting meteorites and the meteorites are fantastic. Excellent photography and book amounts to a "how-to" for hunting meteorites. If you haven't purchased one, do so. You won't regret it. Thanks Geoff. Very nice book.
