4.0 out of 5 stars An easy way to get started in deep-sky atronomy, March 20, 2001

Robert Rudeloff (Dallas, Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Amateur Astronomer's Catalog of 500 Deep-Sky Objects, Vol. 1 (Paperback)

This book provides an excellent means for a beginner in astronomy to get started in deep-sky astronomy. The book is useful for the beginning astronomer who wants to advance to the intermediate level. This book is a useful step to beginning to use more advanced and detailed star atlases.

The book includes lists for NGC and Messier object, as well as nebulas and different types of clusters. The author includes his descriptions of most of the NGC objects, and what equipment is required to view them. The book contains useful field observation notes, and viewing hints.
