Editorial Reviews

Review

>From a complete list of the best deep-sky objects for binoculars to starhopping and splitting stars with a small telescope, amateur astronomers of all experience levels will find challenging activities for their hobby described step-by-step in an easy, accessible style. Readers will also learn how to convert a small, department store telescope into a useful instrument for the Sun, Moon, and double stars; how to keep astronomical notes, from a pen-and-pencil journal to an elaborate electronic notebook; how to follow the astronomical observations of Lewis and Clark, and much more! Eight Easy Observing Projects is a great "hands-on" introduction to the fun, as well as the science, of astronomy! -- Midwest Book Review
