I repeat this from the AOL Leica board in case anyone has not seen it:

The "National Geographic Photography Field Guide" just published by the 
Geographic in Nov 99 and now shipping, is a MUST read. It's available in hard 
cover ($21) and soft cover (about $15) by calling (888) 647-6733. An 
excellent all around guide to photography, it has sections on light,fill 
flash, travel, portraits/people, landscapes, aerials, night photography, etc. 
Ten of these sections are accompanied by a two-or three page feature on a
Geographic photographer' work habits, suggestions on how to best photograph a 
particular subject, and their tips for making better photos. The 
photographers include William Albert Allard - who recounts photographing the 
blues with a M6, David Alan Harvey, and Sam Abell -- all Leica M shooters. 
Also, Jim Stanfield, who used to shoot with Leica R equiptment. Well worth 
the cost. Regards, Bob Soltis
