Dear List,
I think the most obvious reason
for the lack of press focus on
Park Forest (March 26/27, 2003)
is the fact that the invasion of Iraq,
or Gulf War II, commenced on
March 20, 2003 and was, at the
time of Park Forest, in the most
hotly contested uncertainty of
outcome.

Hello Darren and list,
I think it is a good read, and as you noted, it is (usually) one of the
cheaper meteorite books. The following might help you decide if the book
may be of interest to you.

Hello all again,
Thinking on the line of fairly cheap, somewhat out of date and yet a good
read meteorite book, I would also suggest The Search for Out Beginning by
by Robert Hutchison. 164pgs, (c) 1983, Oxford University Press, 1983,
Hardbound with Dust jacket.

Hello again,
Another book, fitting the fairly cheap and good read catagory is
Thunderstands Shooting Stars by Robert Dodd. This one, and the two
others I posted on, are books that anyone who does not have should search
for. Besides Amazon and the book search engines, be sure to check
Could you save me $0.50 and tell me the unthinkable conclusion?

Mysteries
I seems that you have all forgotten Peary who brought back the Tent (
Cape York ), the biggest individual ( more than 30 metric TONS) ever
moved by humans.
A visit at the meteorite room in the National Museum of Natural History,
just by Central Park, NY, NY is highly recommanded.
My 2 cents
I am tired of the pot calling the kettle black.
Some of us are human, we break rules occasionally.
This list will be dead if everyone wants to follow every rule to the tee. If
you break a rule, then email someone hours later about how they are breaking
the rules, you are a hypocrite.

I have Stones from the Stars and rather liked it. Clearly the
author's conclusions are, well, lets say somewhat suspect. However, there
is a good deal of historical information in the book that I thought was very
interesting. I don't think this is much different, personally, than

Thanks Bernd,
Yes it is an amazing story. It has now been proved that this meteorite
is a tale.
A nice book in French Le fer de Dieu ( Actes Sud editor) explains all
the searches of this object, book by Théodore Monod and Brigite

Hi Martin,
I bought my copy a while ago, maybe from Mark Bostick. If so, he might
know what it is worth, well at least what he charged me anyway.
I think I paid maybe $40-$60 or so for it, but I think it is worth
much more than that.

Doug,
Great idea. As a newbie to meteorite collecting, it would be an educational
experience for me and others too, I'm sure.
I hope the rest of the list agrees.

Hi Martin List
I usually retail it for $100 as it is a hard book to find. If you look you will
see I list it on my rare books page as a R4.

I do have a spare copy of it for sale if anyone is interested.

Hi Darren
Just wanted to let you know my experiences with trying to get books off of
these types of sites. By these types I mean the new book retailers. This book
is long out of print and for some reason they list them as still available. In
