        the MoonGerald North. Cambridge University Press, hardback 380
        pages. This is a fantastic book, and really does a great deal to
        motivate the study of the Moon. Until this book I always thought the
        moon was just a dusty lump of rock. It is always clear, and varied, and
        has many drawings and photos in it. This is another  book one can
        put to good use.
 Full MoonMichael Light, is a print catalogue of images taken by the Apollo moon
        missions, the images are very well done and the pick of the crop, there
        is a brief description of the images at the end of the book.
 The New Atlas of the MoonThiery Legault, Bruner, This is a a fabulous large format book of the
        moon showing high quality full size images of the moon for an entire
        lunar cycle, it details  the best features seen for a given day,
        there are also plastic overlays on some of the images with names, so you
        can see the moon with names and no names, highly recommended.

        you can look for at each day during the lunar cycle in some detail.

        Apollo landings, it shows excellent drawings of the entire moon in some
        of the highest detail you'll find in any printed atlas. While primarily
        intended as a referance book, its can be used by the astronomer with a
        keen interest in the Moon,  a hard to find book these days.
