Customer Reviews

Amazing source of information!

I was writing a report on Tunguska for my ninth grade semester science project, and was low on information. After visiting Gallant's web site, I found he had wrote this book and ordered it. The amount of information in it was incredible! There are accounts that have never been published before, diagrams and photos, a full description of the expeditions to the area; all this added to the report, strengthening every section. I would recommend this to anyone interested in astronomy.
