Product Description

Book Description

Three decades ago, two men in their fifties began flattening circles into the fields of Hampshire and Wiltshire. Little did they know that their Friday night antics would seed an international phenomenon that continues to change people's lives to this day.

Now, in the first book of its kind - part history and part how-to guide - the secrets of the crop circle world are revealed, by the people behind the modern era's most astounding artform.

Whether you think crop circles represent a genuine mystery, a new kind of art, or an elaborate practical joke, The Field Guide is sure to leave a lasting impression.

Format:Paperback
Its been on the top of circle enthusiasts minds for some time now keeping them wondering when it would finally get released yet it almost got abandoned somewhere in cornwall. After being compiled over several years the definitive 'Field Guide' to crop circles has finally been completed. Full of humor and wit this is a masterfully written book by true wordsmiths that will have you hooked from start to finish giving a rich in depth account on modern circle making and the philosophy that many circle makers follow. It also gives a very detailed and insightful look at the pre-history of crop circles,the science and how it all began along with interviews with well know circlemakers.

With its 'Roll your own' instructions and diagrams to get anyone started in the field this book will hopefully inspire a whole new generation of circle makers that will help shape this exciting phenomena in the future.

A must read for anyone interested in crop circles regardless of your belief.

Happy Stomping :D

This book need be your only reference into the world of Crop Circles. It provides insight into why this very British pastime continues to happen every year, and even offers the tempting instructions of how to do it yourself. Perhaps a little more weighted towards the very real human involvement in the subject than other books. Even if you disbelieve or oppose the words written in it, it cannot help but inspire you to take to the fields and test the waters.

The Field Guide review 4 Aug 2009
By M. Bowers - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Good book, worth the money. I like the behind the scenes story. The only thing that I was disappointed in was the lack of design information and more field detail. Guess it's back to the geometry drawing board.
