Book Reviews of Celestial Sampler: 60 Small-Scope Tours for Starlit Nights (Stargazing)
Book Review: Outstanding value
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an excellent text for astronomers who want to know what's up there and were to look for it. The author does an excellent job at walking the reader through the sky and knowing where to look and what to look for. It will remain to be seen, however, if all the objects/sights the author claims she can see with her small scope are actually visible from my own backyard.
