Clouds have names and natures, and Charles Tomlinson teaches them all. His rain cloud walks you through the cumulus, stratus, cirro-cumulus, and their kin, explaining how each forms and what it foretells. Clear, poetic, and grounded in early meteorology. A charming guide to reading the sky by its clouds. Look up and learn the names and moods of the clouds drifting overhead. Read the weather aloft.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
