Book Reviews of Deep Sky Observer's Guide

Book Review: An excellent sky-watcher's guide
Summary: 5 Stars

Amateur astronomers who want a guide to deep sky observations will find Neil Bone's Deep Sky Observer's Guide reflects the fact that no longer are such observations limited to large-size equipment in university settings. Discussions of how to locate such objects accompany assessments of the capabilities of typical amateur binoculars and telescopes for such observing. An excellent sky-watcher's guide, Deep Sky Observer's Guide comes complete with small color photos and tips on what is needed for each observation.
