Book Reviews of Weather: The Ultimate Book of Meteorological Events
Book Review: Beautiful photography
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this as a gift for my son, who loves to study and photograph severe weather. Although it is hard to get many words from a teenager, when he opened it, the response was "cool" and he sat for over an hour pouring through it. Translation: he loved it! I would recommend this gift/coffee table quality book for anyone who is interested in weather phenomenon or just enjoys beautiful, unique photographs.
