"A Traveler's Guide to Mars"

Here is a solid book review of "A Traveler's Guide to Mars" by William K. Hartmann who is a renowned scientist who had significant input and influence in the Mariner 9 Mission. Essentially this book is a comprehensive account of the known and unknown geological features we have found on Mars. It has detailed descriptions of what certain features are and the scientific insight that went into explaining them. An attractive point the review makes is the honesty of Hartmann in this book. When the explanation of a certain phenomena or feature on Mars is unavailable he does not try to make up a false one but instead embraces the true wonder of the thing and highlights how much we have yet to learn about Mars and our solar system. It seems like an excellent read and I will be sure to check it out for some good pre sleep leering.
