For Jupiter, I like "Jupiter: The Giant Planet" by Reta Beebe.

Thanks
Bill

I picked up a copy of the Planet Observer's Handbook by Price, from Amazon.com. Thanks for the recommendation. Nice book!. Now I need to get something on Lunar observing. Their is a good review of the book Star Clusters by Willmann-Bell on the website Let's Talk Stars with David Levy. smile
