"There is no doubt that the series of paperbacks about the weather by Alan Watts, primarily for users of inland waters, which he started in 1967, have been extremely popular as witnessed by the fact that virtually all of them have gone into several editions over that period."
--The International Journal of Meteorology (April 2011)
