Landscape photography books worthy of purchasing?

[Zephyr]

Hi
Anyone got any recommendations on landscape photography books that are worth purchasing that give you some insight into how x person got the shot, what they used, that you can take on board to help improve your own photography?

Thanks

Not a book with "Use f11 @ 20mm" type settings, more of an approach type book but Bruce Barnbaum's The Art of Photography is very good imo.

The Making of Landscape Photographs: A Practical Guide to the Art and Techniques by Charlie Whaite - just pennies and postage secondhand from Amazon. An old book, but interesting and useful. It covers a few of those "I did this, but I could have done this" scenarios. The Joe Cornish DVD With Landscape in Mind is also useful if you want to follow the thought proceses of taking a shot rather than lots of technical bits.

Not a book but I would highly recommend Landscape Photography Magazine.

If you subscribe to Platinum Service, it will cost £45 for 12 issues but you do get access to all back issues (approximately 40 of them).
