The Farm Weather Handbook

The Farm Weather Handbook

Editorial Reviews
An unidentified reader
If you're a weather watcher or someone who loves weather lore, here's a nice book for your library. It's a fun read for anyone who eyes the sky and wonders what the day will turn into. It also might be a nice thing for suburban gardeners who can learn a bit about how the weather affects their own small plots. In addition to a fine writing style, Schwanz packed the 152-page book with information, 70 color photos and some good charts and graphs. This reader especially liked Schwanz's chapters about the advances in meteorological science and about how the National Weather Service operates.
