Mastering Pointers

["Andy Wilson" soundraider_uk]

i'd like to think about how to properly master location recordings for
release on, eg., CD. Afaik, I have some good software to help with this
(WaveLab Studio). However, as for the art, as opposed to the technology,
of the mastering process, I have very little to go on, as most texts on
the subject are about how to master recorded music rather than natural
sounds, wildlife, etc.

can anyone point me at a good text or give me any useful pointers?
