Editorial Reviews
Review
"[A] marriage of art and science. . . . Readers passionate about the skies and the artists who have studied them will find this book captivating." ― Kirkus Reviews
"With elegant prose Mr. Graham, an atmospheric scientist, merges science and art history to provide a merry handbook to those castles in the sky. . . . Rare is the book that provides something useful for every time you step outside."---Luke Lyman, Wall Street Journal
"This fascinating book not only identifies types of clouds and explains how they form and disperse, but also reminds us of the close historical connection between art and science in capturing natural phenomena."---Simon Caterson, The Sydney Morning Herald
"This truly excellent book will teach you the science of clouds in a manner accessible to anyone. You will be amazed at how easily you absorb the details and how you will almost immediately find yourself checking the sky and assigning labels to what you see."---David Gascoigne, Travels with Birds
"What a field guide!"---Mark Avery
"Wow, just wow! This is an absolutely stonkingly good book . . . . A fabulous fusion of art and science."---George McGavin, zoologist, entomologist and broadcaster
"It's a must-have for anyone with a serious interest in clouds!"---Ian Paulsen, Birdbooker Report
"A fascinating view of the history of clouds . . . . The illustrations chosen by the author are superb. They match the text so that the reader can recognise the painter’s understanding of the science. This book should appeal to students and experienced Meteorologists, art historians and lay people alike." ― Blue Wolf Reviews
"This book balances science, art and history in an optimal manner and acts as a technical guide as much as a historical narrative, balanced by plenty of clear diagrams and, of course, the paintings. For anyone who steps outside and immediately looks up, this book is a must-read."---Steven Keates, Weather
