Hi Stan & List Here are the books that are in print that I would recommend everyone have at least up to the level they feel comfortable with. These only include the books that are the "Best all around" books for the collector. Of course there are numerous other books that one should have that are out of print. Some will notice that there are few books missing but I included only the bare bones minimum of books.
All levels Grady "Catalogue of Meteorites" 5th ed Beginner Norton "Rocks from Space" Great introductory text Zanda " Meteorites their Impact on Science and History" Great picture book Next Step Bevan "Meteorites a Journey through Space and Time" Barely makes it to this level Norton " Cambridge Encyclopedia of Meteorites" Definitely will take you to the next level McSween " Meteorites and Their Parent Planets" Pull out your geology degree Advanced Papike "Planetary Materials" Mineralogy of meteorites. Hutchison " Meteorites a Petrologic, Chemical and Isotopic Synthesis" Think Meteoriticist...well not quite. PhD None If you need any help getting these books let me know as I do sell some of them. If you want more specialized recommendations I would be glad to give those as well. BTW I'm honored that you would put my little book on your list of must haves.
