Description
For many decades, the advice given to beginning amateur astronomers has been "start with binoculars" but, beyond that, there has not been any specific advice on how to go about it.
Stephen Tonkin shows you why this advice is appropriate, and takes you on a year-long journey through the night sky visible from northern temperate latitudes. At the end of this journey, you will have a sound basic knowledge of the sky and will have gathered useful snippets of astronomical information and miscellany along the way.
Reader comments (print edition):
* "...a true pleasure to read – information is presented in a way that both new observers and experienced astronomers can appreciate...seasonal targets are well thought out...excellent resource for those doing public star parties wanting some great 'eye candy' to show off the night sky..."
* "...fantastic. Easy to follow and an ideal book to accompany every binocular and small telescope session...very readable."
