    First published in 1953, this book by meteorologist D. J. Holland gives a general outline of meteorological theory as well as a clear explanation of coded weather reports from the Meteorological Office. The text is accompanied by clear meteorological charts with explanations of the weather fronts discussed, and will be of value, as Holland says in the preface, to 'all who are interested in their own daily weather'.
