Another Short but Good Book about the Planet Mars

Even though this book is a bit dated, since it was written in 1987 before the recent Mars Pathfinder and Mars Global Surveyor missions were even dreamed of, it does contain a lot of interesting information and photographs about the Planet Mars and the Viking Project. If readers are looking for more recent material about the planet Mars, Seymour Simon, has written a new book in 2000 titled Destination Mars. It's basically an updated version of the current book. Finally, while this book is geared towards children, I feel that many adults will find the text and the photographs quite interesting.
