Thank you Linton, Thank You Michael.
And yes, Michael, you are right, that PDF version is illegal and has now been reported to Springer.

Yes, neither author lived long enough to enjoy the result of their work. In fact, Larry Chitwood died the very day the book was finished; he had spent most of the day working with Richard and Dorothy Norton, then decided to take a walk before dinner, and he was later found on a hiking trail, apparently victim of a massive heart attack. Richard was seriously affected by that death and did not last very long after that.

Thank you for supporting that excellent book, and yes the 2 widows do get a (small) royalty check. Right now that book is very hard to find but it is (or will shortly) be re-printed, and Dorothy and I still hope very much to have available during the Tucson show.

Any questions, just ask!

Really!
It's a great book, which should be on every collector's shelf.
Sadly, neither author lived long enough to promote it's sale.
The least we can do is buy a copy in their honor.

Hello list,

I found a PDF version of the classic book "Field Guide to Meteors and
Meteorites (by R. Norton & L. Chitwood)"
in the following link:

http://museum-21.ru/files/video/Norton%20O.,%20Chitwood%20L.%20-%20Field%20Guide%20to%20Meteors%20and%20Meteorites%20-%202008.pdf

however this might be an illegal download site.
