  Mariner's
Weather Handbook
by Steve & Linda Dashew
You will find this unlike any book on weather you've ever seen. Written by lifelong cruisers and the authors of The Offshore Cruising Handbook this book cuts right to the chase about reading weather faxes, interpreting upper-level charts, the wonders of the 500 millibar chart - the data that mariners really need to have - and know how to interpret. The Dashews make it all relevant to sailors in discussions of low pressure tactics, an analysis of the Queen's Birthday Storm, "bent back" warm fronts, and more. Any sailor who ventures more than a few miles offshore should be familiar with the content of this book. We recommend it highly. Hardbound, 6-1/4" x 9-1/2", 594 pages, full of illustrations.
