FOR FURTHER READING

If you are especially interested in meteoritics, you already may have

read some good books on general astronomy. There are many and most of

them are not too advanced for the beginner. Unfortunately, these books

devote but little space to meteoritics, the “Johnny-come-lately” of

astronomy. Almost all of the writings on meteors and meteorites you will

find largely profitable to read are in professional meteoritical

publications. A selected list of such publications, containing much or

at least a worthwhile amount of material you will now be able to

understand, is given below. Your chief difficulty in using this list

will be in finding some of the more important items in the holdings of

your public library, unless it is a large and well-stocked one. Your

librarian, however, may be able to help you get the item from some other

library—perhaps from that of a nearby university or college.
