Asimov's Guide to Halley's Comet

New York: Dell Publishing Company, 1985.

No Flaws or Blemishes but minimal shelf handling; The bindings are tight and square. Text clean, light even age toning with 75 photographs and additional illustrations. Appears Unread. 

An entertaining and informative guide for the science lay person to the history of the development of our knowledge of comets - their source, their birth, their life, their death, their composition, their observation and, of course, the records of their passing.

Our earthly encounters with comets might have been at a distance, at close enough quarters that we passed through the tail of the comet, or, indeed, some comets might even have met their demise by colliding with us!
