Beautiful! Ideal for the the armchair cloudwatcher. - By: S. Clout, 04 Sep 2008

This is a fantastic book & I was glad I bought it. The foreword is very informative & well written & doesn't boggle the reader with too much science. This book is ideal for those armchair cloud watchers who know a bit about clouds but need to further their knowledge. This book is an essential guide to cloud identification & provides some stunning photos of the clouds themselves. The book is also handy for being able to forecast the weather as you will soon get to know the cloud types & the associated weather that comes with them.

The sky's the limit - By: J. J. N. Mauger, 27 May 2008
Recently I found a book that I could only dream of as a child, but which didn't seem to exist. Then I was fascinated by the weather & wanted a book classifying the cloud types with the correct names, symbols & pictures to demonstrate. Richard Hamblyn's "The Cloud Book" does alll these things. The beauty of the photographs means it easily qualifies for the coffee tables of the less geeky among us, while neatly illustrating the text for the cloud afficianado. It is not often that you can say a book is perfect in alll respects, but may be this is one.
