Re: a book i read - about the book

Here's a book we can all read and discuss. I have it, and it's a real gem of a source book, up to 2003.

A Traveler's Guide to Mars
by William K. Hartmann
2003
paperback - 468 pages
from Workman Publishing

Vacationers often begin planning their next adventure with the purchase of a travel guide. If you believe in very advanced planning, you may want to pick up A Traveler's Guide to Mars by William K. Hartmann. The Guide to Mars is "hot off the press," timed to coincide with the publicity attendant on this August's perihelic opposition of Mars (our closest approach to the Red Planet in nearly 60,000 years) and the interest in three robot landers headed there.
