Book Reviews of Binocular Highlights: 99 Celestial Sights for Binocular Users (Sky & Telescope Stargazing)
Book Review: Astronomy for the Casual Observer
Summary: 5 Stars
I have long had an interest in the stars. However, my interst was not strong enough to want to get buried in a telescope. The careful observing and scientific mindset of amature astronomers was just not working for me.
I suppose that I was more interested in the romance of the stars rather than the science they represent. I enjoy learing the constellations.
This book was a break-through for me. I already owned a good pair of binoculars, so one I had this book I was set.
The information is presented in a way a more causal observer can appreciate. In addition, it provides details a more experienced person will appreciate.
On the first two trips out with this book, I observed more than I ever imagined. As the seasons change, I will learn to see even more.
If you are a hard core astronomer, this books is probably too simple. If you want to simply look at the stars unaided, it is probably too deep. If you are like me, and fall between those categories, the book will serve you well.
The book is well printed, seems to deal with dew easily and is ring bound for easy use.
