Re: (meteorobs) A book

Asaf and others,

Below is a recommended reading list that I put together for NAMN members.
Some of these books are out of print and difficult to find (it took me
several years to find a copy of each of these!). But you might be able to
find a copy in a local library or through an inter-library loan. "Rocks from
Space" by O. Richard Norton is now in a second edition which I don't have.

Btw, if anyone has additional books (in English) that they would recommend,
please let me know the particulars on it. TIA.

-Mark
