Wonderful, a must for anyone who enjoys the moon's beauty

Harold Hill's collection of sketches is my favorite of all my books on the moon. Hill has a wonderful sense of the aesthetics of the moon's features, and his meticulous and beautiful sketches show rare lighting conditions seldom caught in photos. More than once I've used his book as a reference to check an unusual feature I've spotted; but more often, I just browse through the sketches, sigh and wish I could draw so well.
