Hi Lloyd,

I'd recommend the book Rocks From Space by Richard Norton for general 
information and interesting read. To live the adventure of meteorite 
hunting and learn a lot about early meteorite history, find a copy of 
Find a Fallen Star by Harvey Nininger.

Meteorites from ME: Andover, Castine, Nobleborough, Searmount and NH: 
no confirm meteorites that I am aware of.

While eBay offers a lot of good meteorite sources, there is a lot of 
fraud on eBay where meteorites are concern and if you are new to 
collecting you might be taken by people wanting you to believe you will 
get an authentic meteorite at a good price.

Best to by from a well known meteorite dealer.
