The Night Sky - A Guide to Observing the Sun, Moon and Planets
by Steve Massey, 224 pages, 2nd edition, 2007

Although mainly interested in DSOs, I found this to be an excellent book on Solar System observing & photography. Easy to read considering the amount of information presented, and excellent pictures throughout (unlike may books of a few years earlier). A little over half the book is on solar system science & exploration, while the rest is dedicated to tools and techniques for observing and photographing the Sun, Moon and Planets.
