Whether you fly a kite in a soft summer breeze or shovel snow after a January blizzard, the dynamics of wind and weather remain the same. Eric Pinder, certified observer at Mount Washington Meteorological Observatory, takes listeners on a voyage of discovery through the atmosphere, a swirling ocean of air that surrounds and sustains life. The journey begins in a sunny New England woodlot and ends atop the polar ice of Antarctica - where we learn, remarkably, that the two extremes are not so different after all.

Interesting, but poorly written
Revisado: 01-09-06
While full of interesting information about our weather the book could be about half as long were the writing better (way too heavy on flowerly adjectives).
Also the narrator is very monotone and results in the reader falling asleep more than happens with other books.
