"This field guide, usable in both hemispheres, could replace a whole shelf of sky atlases, monthly almanacs and observing manuals." --Guy Ottewell, author of the Zodiacal Wavy Charts , Map of the Starry Sky and Uranus, Neptune and Pluto: A Longer View "This is an indispensable handbook of tools and charts for finding all the treasures of the night sky." --Edward Brooke-Hitching, author of The Golden Atlas and The Sky Atlas "Dickinson knows the territory, and has picked out the best objects to challenge you on a dark night- whether they're other galactic stars and nebulae, or galaxies pinwheeling millions of light-years away. This book has it all." --Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer, SETI Institute
