924 Elementary Problems and Answers in Solar System… par James A. Van Allen
This bk has an uncommon format. It is mostly a large selection of test questions. There is no presentation of principles or discussion, but there is a list of answers in theback of the book. If you like taking tests, you might like this book's style. There are a few line drawing type illustrations to back up the answers.
